If you use older firmware (ie. firmware before they started to use TX Copy)
then it works okay in -CURRENT.  In 5.2 there was some #ifdef HACK code
that tried to deal with the TX Copy stuff but it had negative effect on
the older firmware.  So it should work okay.  Getting the information
I need to fix it still hasn't happened and I haven't got lucky with 
my experiemnts :-(
