Hello Carol!

Monday January 17 2022 20:26, you wrote to mark lewis:

You are linked here to STARS and the local one Z2REGION25 anything else it up 
to
you to connect to if needed.

Now as Mark send STARS to me along with the rest of backbone+ I think there is

need for you/me to send/receive STARS echo but it does not cause any problems
just sinks in the the Dup area where it get deleted after 24 hours.

Same applies to both nodes as can't remember which is what. I blame age.
