Much thanks for this information, Scotty, and my apologies for dragging
you off on a sidetrack when you are already working hard.
I hadn't known that the price point between the two FPGAs was that
marginal until I checked online just now. Given the extra capacity it
sounds well worth the investment.
Thanks again,
