<p>Odd that you have to give them 10 inches before they take
the mile in Metric. In Imperial you only have to give them
an inch (2.54 mm).<br>

'codeplug' originates from an EPROM based
hardware key which AMTRAK train drivers
inserted into a Motorola radio in the cab.
This term pre-dates digital radios by decades.<br>
It is the source of much confusion, and I much
prefer the term 'configuration file' which is
much more descriptive and far less
obfuscating. </div>

<div>It looks like a series of black
