Is the UNCR.COM in use Uncrunch v 2.3 by Steve Greenburg? If not, I can send
you a copy. It might be possible that SIMTEL20 is not crunching correctly.
I'm running short on time, or else I'd attach a copy of CRUNCH23.LBR in Intel
hex form for you to MLOAD or LOAD...
(don't have UUENCODE running on this VAX yet!)
