SYM Copy? by
sisu1a
Hi All,
I think my installation of SYM I'm using on my 310 is corrupted. My
update privileges ended as of March of this year, so I can't just
download a new one from Naviter. Does anyone have an archived copy of
the SYM download from last March or around thereabouts?
TIA,
-Paul

Round table discussions at Philly? by
Frank[_12_]
I see some interesting round table discussions (for instance the one
at 1:00pm on Saturday) scheduled at the Philly SSA convention, but I'm
not familiar with the format. Is there just one session with
multiple topics, or separate discussions in separate locations, or
what?
TIA,
Frank

SN10 Xmas wishlist (long) by
kirk.stant
For Santa Dave, here is my SN10 Xmas wishlist:
1. Ability to save and recall multiple tasks (2 or 3 at least).
Since the US allows retasking in the air with the emphasis on
