Mark,

Well, as usual, you're right.  Resetting CTTY doesn't work and in fact,
when message playback is complete, ECST doesn't respond to serial input
commands any longer.  Have to quit/restart ECST to restore serial
communications, so something is definately going on that I don't want.  Ah
well, perhaps yet another idea will surface.

ECS (windows) is beginning to sound better & better to me!  Do you still
offer to "convert" the .CFG files via e-mail?  How much?  I've really not
looked over conversion information but will go back and do so.
