For the record, (and I've emailed to Roy about this, too) I wasn't
trying to call Roy but someone else in Adaptec's SCSI interface
engineering department.  I didn't include the other person's name in
my posting specifically to save him from getting umpteen calls a day
asking "how do I put the jumpers on my card" that I know would result.

I very thankful for the responses we get from Roy; I was
surprised, actually, that he had the time to answer my posting.
