Hi, Paul.

You must have been busy this morning around 8am. I think it was about
the 45th attempt that I finally connected.

The Spirit's busy detect is quite variable, anything from 13 to 33
seconds (on those calls). So say 45 * 23 = ~17 minutes to get through.
Plus manual intervention time - my Telix script only retries 9 times
before giving up. Maybe 20 mins.

Regards, FIM.
