Everyone....
I would like to take this moment to appologize to those
who were inconvenienced by my email. It was only after

I will, however, submit the code that I use (it's simple)
and some documentation on the circuit (wiring to HB etc.)
to Fred so that it may be posted for all HB users to view.
Thanks.
