I wonder what unit CC is using.  The Inovonics I installed at WOTX has 2 
fixed-length fields...an 8 character one for ID, and a 32 character one for 
info.  It's a low-end model that can not dynamically update.  It does what 
they wanted it to do.  Besides, it's installed at the tx site, which would 
make dynamically updating a bit cumbersome.  How do the CC stations 
dynamically update theirs?  Do they send the data over an STL subcarrier?
