[Dennis Rogers]

Dan,

     Great job on the application and I believe it coming right along.

1. Is there a way to add messages updating during the SEND process of

 - There seems to be a long time before the transfer starts. Could let us
know what is
     transpiring during this time with message(s).
 - How many frames to be sent.
 - How many frames have been sent (completed).
 - How many frame retires during the session have been sent.
 - Session completed/failed.

2. Also, need a way to exit a failure without locking up the application as
in
    case of a failure occurring.

Dennis, N5VRP
