Hi Marty,

1440 minutes as the daily limit would be correct for 24 hours.

Keep in mind RA./EleBBS's file transfer limits were based on 28.8 or 33.6K
modems, and the daily download limit is a 16 bit value, limiting you to 
65MB.
(65535K).  It would be nice to see the limits.ra structure expanded.

Regards,  Mike
