RS> SBBSecho defaults to exporting type 2+ packets
Okay I had a looksee at a pktheader parser I wrote awhile back and I now see that I was confusing 2+ with 2.2 so your statement above would put SBBSecho amongst the majority. All my links support type 2+ pkts while only one supports type 2, while another can do 2.2. So from my perspective both 2 and 2.2 are equally rare.

I wish I could say that them were the days but my heart wouldn't be in it. Everyone I knew from that time is no longer in the game and whatever software they were using back then has long since been abandoned even before y2k and the two digit year became real issues of concern. I am convinced that had the four digit year replaced the packed msg DateTime back in 1999 or 2002 there would have been minimal problems with it.
Life is good, Maurice
