The nodes of the net will be spread out in many different arrangements: 2-point, star, and ring. The nodes are required to act together on command (e.g. at 3:45:55 P.M. turn on your devices), even though they are hundreds of miles apart. All references and comments will be appreciated. teltone!warren -- (206) 827-9626 Warren Seltzer ...uw-beaver_____!tikal!warren Teltone Corporation .......fluke___/ P.O.
