    Robert,
    I don't have any clue. I asked the seller,
    let's see what s/he replies.
    
    Speaking of the Nav-L list, what can I do but to enjoy
    the last days of its existence?
    Unfortunately I can do nothing to save it.
    
    I just don't see how can I use the new list
    in the way I used the old one.
    
    Alex

    something like that can be a horizon. Care to make any wild guesses?
