For the past week it's taken three iterations of SETI Driver 'Transmit' to upload
results; one to upload, a second to do apparently nothing, and a third
to decrement the "ready to transmit" counter.

Today I'm in the middle of uploading 20 WUs. Every other upload
attempt gets the "can't connect to server" message so there's lots of
manual intervention.

I just noticed that "ready to transmit" is still at 20 (see above),
and that I have uploaded 54 WUs so far in this session!!

Well. I nursed what turned out to be 22 WUs through the three SETI
Driver iterations above. It took 2-1/2 hours. 

On the third iteration I got credit all over again! SETI Classic
appeared to be working as normal.  It's almost as if someone at
Berkley saw my original post and said "Oops - we'd better remove the
code we implemented to confuse/discourage classic users". 

For my 22 WUs, I got 97 credits. I trust there's a post-upload process
to remove duplicates. I don't want to cheat!!
