Yes...I'm all for trying a pared down version.  You're using a lot of flags
that I haven't messed with and looks like my doc file is corrupt after ten
years on the Netware server and I'm going to need to go scrounge a fresh
copy to play in the deep end.  I've started to try to duplicate
your setup a time or two to test and am reminded of how much more
non-trivial that is than it sounds.

You still have the 10AM Sat zero-length forced event ahead of your everyday
4AM to midnight event...so resequence to ascending order.  The overlap
might be causing the Event# confusion.

I still don't think the dialout is Bink's issue...but the fact that the
hold node's file is not .HLO is.  If you still had the problem with the
resorted ROUTE.CFG, then I think it may necessarily Squish either, but
perhaps some more code later in your batch that might be running when you
think it isn't.  Is it only doing it for this one node, or is it just lucky
that this is the guy with something still pending at midnight?

P.S.  My equivalent trick to your scripts to keep the analog node from
dialing my IP nodes is to assign them my analog number as an override in
the analog BINK.CFG.  That kept the analog side from trying to CRASH the
same node that BINKD was trying to crash, but since it is configurable by
address, I could still have the analog node dial Seaborn if nothing was
happening on the IP side...due to issues at either end.
