** chuckles **  Yes, yes... I know windoze ZZZ zzz ZZZ.. Unfortunately
most of the toys I like to play with only run on it!

Thank you for your response.  I do have SETIspy, checked out what you
suggested and it certainly makes sense though I admit I still have
quite a bit to learn about it all.

Thank you for your time, it is truely appreciated!
Sincerely

PS:  Love the sig!

Yes, angle range causes a big variation in processing time 
... however, that is also influenced by OS.  Linux is 
affected much less than Windoze.  There may be other coding 
in the WU's that affects processing time.  If you use SETIspy 
(What! you're not <g>), you may notice that the number of FFTs 
varies.  At least, that is what I remember ... but can't 
verify that at this time.
