   Bob in your text file "kpc3+WIDEn.txt" you have
<SNIP>
"2) UIFLOOD should now be set to SS,30,ID to support your local State
or ARRL section nets (where SS is your state abbreviation).  Notice
this is a complete reversal to previous recommendations that wanted
NOID to be set.  Now we want ID ON.  This is because we now will get
full path tracing for WIDEn-N in the UITRACE parameter.  Also, with the
SSn-N paths, we can get FIRST and LAST digi identification if users
use the path of SS1-1,SSn-N.  These packets will arrive as
DIGI1,DIGIn*,SSn-N, showing the first and last DIGI's used."
</SNIP>


   Did I read something out of context or is uiflood supposed to have NOID
instead of ID. I'm running 9.1 for my digi's.
