Hi Lester and other.
With 4.2E NO PROBLEM AT ALL. ALL WORKS FINE.
Starting with 4.2Ha same thing. ALL WORK FINE, and I am STUCK in this
version since ( I think May more or less ).
After 4.2Ha I don't recall but it should be 4.2Hb begin the troubles.
You are a very conservative man, I know, but see Ibo go ahead and not
capable to pace................

Ciao
