Thanks for the advice.
Looks like WIDE2-2 and RELAY,WIDE2-2 for the boat and WIDE1-1 for the 
airplane. Speaking of airplanes, has anyone ever made a flying digi?
I would be willing to fly any experimental setup anyone can come up with. I 
*think* I can make my PK-12 relay anything from an alias, but so far every 
time I use it sans PC it goes for awhile and then locks up, never to work 
again until reset and reconfigured.
