Howdy! Richard,

A question - I see in this message that You wrote: "HA gear" and
"kenwood head unit".

Is that used for operating a Amateur Radio station or something about
Pi's?

I'm not a Pi user, I have only used Windows XP, 98SE, 95, 3.1 and
Commodore 64 PC's, and know nothing about Pi and the accessories
used with it.

I lurk in many echos.

When I saw the TAGLINE in Your message about the Fat Lady, I thought
about the Fat Lady DOES get to Sing at the BEGINNING of a Baseball
Game instead of waiting till the end of the Game.

Thanks, 73 (Best Regards) de (From) Ed W9ODR   dit           dit.
