-> Hello Khile,
Howdy!
->     Are you aware that S95 is actually the numeric representation of an
->     8-bit binary value?  In other words, for S95 there are eight bits that
->     are either on or off.  The binary equivalent of the sum of the eight
->     bits is what you want to use when you actually set S95.
->     Took me awhile to figure that one out.  I called Supra tech support
->     regarding S95 prior to discovering this, and the person I talked to
->     apparently did not even know this.
YEs, I am aware of this, and thought I MUST be doing something wrong, so
I called my friend "Patrick" at Supra, and asked him what I was doing
wrong..  Turns out that other than not being able to add at that
moment.. (Somehow I ended up with 46 instead of 43) I was doing nothing
wrong.  I can tell you this though.. if I set S95 down to 3 or 4, then
accept a call, the junk goes away..  then I set it back up and the junk
is still gone... then on the SECOND CALL, the junk appears again. :-)
Like they're not clearing some register out between calls...?? :-)
See ya!
