RLC-3 Version 1.80

V1.80 is nearly identical to V1.79.  The only noteworthy change is
that it fixes a bug that made it impossible to control event triggers
numbered 256 and higher with command 157 or 159.  It is necessary to
reinitialize when upgrading from any previous version.

Known problems and workarounds:
- RLC-3 and RLC-Club workaround:  when using command 190 to recall
  the user level required to execute a large range of commands, the
  controller may reset rather than providing the command response.
  To avoid this, turn off serial queuing with "060 0110" first:
        060 0110 ;              turn serial queueing off
        190 000 500 ;           recall level for commands 0-500
        060 0111 ;              turn serial queueing back on
- The synthesized voice words "goodbye", "tick/toc", "approach", "list" 
  and "Mount Hamilton" may not work correctly.  They should be corrected 
  in a future version.
- In V1.79 and V1.80, the repeat dial feature (command 129) does not
  remember autodial numbers;  it only works with direct dialed numbers
  In other words, if you dial a number directly (by entering all of the
  digits of the phone number), then dial using an autodial, then use
  command 129 to do a redial or recall the last number dialed, it will
  redial or recall the DIRECT dialed number, not the autodialed number.
  That should be changed in future versions.
- If you attempt to redial the last number using command 129 from a
  radio port that has not made a phone call since the controller was
  initialized, nothing will be dialed and you will hear dial tone.  Once
  a call has been made from each radio port, there is no problem.
- The recall feature of command 073 (which lets you control and recall
  the preaccess settings) doesn't properly recall the preaccess code by
  voice, cw or serial.  Instead, if it recalls anything for the code, it
  is just some digits from a command that was entered previously.  The
  preaccess codes themselves should be stored and work correctly.  A
  workaround is to use command 011 to recall the names of the preaccess
  macros for each port (listed in Chapter 8);  they are the same as the
  preaccess code.
