	Well then tell me what your settings are -- just what SmartBeaconing settings 
do YOU use?

	From what I can see, you have ZERO experience with it.  Until you actually 
TRY it for yourself, you cannot claim to have any experience with it.

	On the other hand, you probably have plenty of experience with the results of 
faulty configurations.

	Instead of bashing SmartBeaconing, why not come up with some settings YOU 
would like?

	And you might, sometime, try out that HamHUD seen at 
http://www.hamhud.net/hh2/wb4apr.jpg .
