Mark Harrison may have typed (or replied to) the following:
 MH> int Ix = 0;
 MH> str Sx[3];    //good to 999 loops
                             ^^^
In my case, I think this will be enough.  =)
 MH> while(!carrier())
IOW, "while (carrier()  0)", right?
 MH> ++x;
IOW, "x=x+1;", right?
BTW, thanks for the help.  I'll implement the change as soon as I
get the chance.
