Whenever you have a bunch of the old pagers in close proximity (e.g. in a car for a long-distance twitch), there always seems to be one that outperforms (or underperforms) the others.... and it's not always the same one! I think the same probably applies to new pagers as well. My hunch is that it's something to do with battery strength, but I don't really know. Pagers move in mysterious ways!</p></blockquote><p></p>
