I'd love to help out in any way that I can, but now that I'm officially an 
Aged Pensioner I seem to be flat out for some reason...

And yes, I really must get that ACSnet (and UUCP) node going, but now that 
I have time for Amateur radio (and electronics in general) I really must 
clean off my workbench so that I can see my dining table again (and it's 
just as well that I'm divorced, as otherwise I soon would be).
