Ok, think I got it.   I have 2 interfaces net & RF.  With both off no 
problem, screen never goes stationless.  If I start EITHER interface the 
first station that comes on, makes the screen go stationless.  It will stay 
like that forever until you move the screen with the arrow buttons.

Well.... it did that twice, then it changes.  It even did it once after the 
button was released.  It generally does it about 5-10 seconds after the 
button is button is depressed.

It is not consistant and hard to duplicate.  Gotta run, I'll check later.  
How long after you press the button, is the first snapshop taken?  Hard to 
tell as there are no seconds on the file time stamp.
