Unfortunately I have no way of checking earlier RO versions: s/h
purchase with
RO4.02 fitted, replaced with Adjust - but having swapped SA for
Kinetic, I cannot
revert to 4.02.  I can try Adjust with the Kinetic in SA-only mode,
which takes
the extra memory out of the picture, but otherwise am relying on
responses
here to work out at what point in the evolution of RO podule !PC has
ceased
to work.

Thanks for your interest,
Andrew
