Bill,

 Great to hear you are having such a great time with Allstar!

The AutoSky on voice message might be getting lost a boot. Here is what I
generally do in /etc/rc.local. You might want to sleep longer to delay the
message a little more after boot. No harm done in delaying a bit.

/usr/local/etc/rc.allstar

/usr/local/bin/AUTOSKY/AutoSky
sleep 3
/usr/local/bin/AUTOSKY/AutoSky.ON

exit 0



*73 Doug*
