Duh, my bad!

Yes, that's what I meant :-)

I have to admit that it *is* rather confusing, which is brought about by the 
wording. IMO, "Systems" should read "BossNodes" but I'm struggling to think of 
a replacement for "Fidostyle Uplinks". When you set up a new Point AKA, you 
should configure "Systems" first and then "Fidostyle Uplinks". Methinks it 
would have been better to roll them up into a single tabbed configuration item.
