Repeater ID and controller

[Mike, K8LH]

Hi Nick,

Glad to hear you've got it up-n'-runnin'.

If you were to try that other character format you'd need to change the algorithm. I don't have PBP but I think it would use one less variable (below). Other than that, the algorithms are so close I'm not sure there would be any advantage using one format over the other.

I'd love to see your code when you're finished (is there such a thing as "finished"?)...

Cheerful regards, Mike, K8LH

<note> that outer loop doesn't look quite right, does it?

  while idchar <> 0                     '
