You snooze, you lose (grin)!  Actually, "radio" should have been 
"software".  I hate my keyboard, with all the mistakes it makes ...

OT: Actually, I do have two Icom ID-880H radios for sale (like new, in 
box with all accessories, $300 each).  Sales will fund additional 
MikroTik radio/antenna combos.

*attaches* and doesn't *dangle*?

I just did a test accessing CenturyLink's test page:

  * Frontier FiOS:  25.6Mbps down, 12.0 up.
  * Comcast RG-6:  28.5Mbps down, 5.8 up.
