I now have a version of arbitron that works on 16-bit systems. It is 
significantly different from previous versions of news arbitron, and I would
like some volunteers to Beta test it before I begin sending it out to the
world. I would especially like Beta test volunteers from these kinds of 
machines:
	System III machines
	Venix and Xenix
	System V machines
	older Gould
It has already been tested on Ultrix 1.2, BSD, and V7 running on a PDP11.

Acknowledgement: the 16-bit version of the code was provided by Andy Walker
of Nottingham University, UK. Many many thanks.

Several other people have provided me with modifications to the code that
made it run on their 16-bit machine, but Walker's version is the first set of
changes that also run on my machine.
