Hi &y and Andy.

The advantage is more than just a bit of bandwidth. Actually, the 
7plus-overhead is quite large, around 14% more data size. And the splitting
adds more forward header data, too.

The second advantage is that you don't need a tool to split, convert, and
recombine. It's all built into the system that we use here. It is nothing new,
actually BIN transfer had been introduced around 1990, and even old famous 
DOS programs like Graphic Packet (GP) or BayCom could handle it.

And why not changing software? This is why software is written, isn't it?
If we stop changing, we stop progress.

73, Patrick
