Hi,

I don't want to change the timer resolution since the multitasker will
run slower.
The counter only supports an int right? So we can use a signed int and
check the
overflow flag?  Has anyone wrote code like this yet?

I'd like to get at lease 30' out of the sonar since I map a room and
plot a course.
