Hi George,

the Wb2Uci.eng file looks fine and here's what the CM9SKR.txt (txt not param)
should look like:

;---- CM9SKR.txt
; A personality created by Sedat Canbaz, Kurt Utzinger, Rolf Buehler
cm_parm opp=100 opn=100 opb=100 opr=100 opq=100
cm_parm myp=100 myn=100 myb=100 myr=100 myq=101
cm_parm cc=105 mob=110 ks=155 pp=100 pw=100
cm_parm cfd=0 sop=100 avd=-2 rnd=0 sel=12 md=99
;---- File end

Cheers,

Martin
