My 3B2/400 has 12 bit max. on compression, so I moved it to our 3B5 and did it there. Instead of spending time flaming, why don't you find a neighbor that has a 16 bit uncompress, and kindly ask him/har for a copy. The person who originally posted the 16 bit version, has already realized that many people couldn't read it. -- Mikel Manitius @ AT&T-IS Altamonte Springs, FL ...{seismo!akgua|ihnp4|cbosgd|mcnc}!codas!mikel
