Re: [802SEC] 802-SEC reflector delay
Buzz,
Actually what you detected is one of several cut and paste errors. I
used cut and paste a number of times in the generation of the table and
failed in several instances to then correctly edit the result. I have
made the corrections in the table quoted below.
With the corrected data, it took my second message only 3 seconds to get
to from me to the IEEE server.
Thanks,
wlq
