That branch of the thread has been marked "Broadcast storm detector" for
quite some time.

Don't take this the wrong way but as an owner of the XTB-II that's not going
to be upgradeable to the XTB-IIR the subject of the world's best repeater is
primarily an academic one for me now.  On the other hand, my interest in
house-wide, real-time X-10 signal strength readings and broadcast storm
detection are quite high on my list, hence my discussion of the details of
that project in the "broadcast storm" thread.
