+1. Fixed route PC11 promotions so that a new PC61 is actually generated and 
+   also sent instead of the original PC11 (to PC61 capable nodes).
+13Jan23=======================================================================
+1. Periodically store Routing tables and, if they are young enough (def: 3hrs)
+   autotically restore them on restart of the node. This will short circuit
+   the need to rebuild the routing tables from scratch on every restart - 
+   which is normally for something like software update. 
+2. Fix pc11 debugging stats with the correct figures. Sigh... Also move some
+   of the totals to a different place.
+3. Add show/spotstats command which gives the current spot statistics shown
+   during pc11 debugging (which means you don't need to set/deb pc11 unless
+   you really want that extra noise).
+12Jan23=======================================================================
+1. Regularise 'set/debug pc11' output to track all the routes through PC11 and
+   PC61 processing and statistics.
+11Jan23=======================================================================
+1. Improve (?) the PC11 -> PC61 upgrading process that delays incoming PC11s
+   for a very short time in the hope that a PC61 will come in to be used 
+   instead. It will also upgrade a PC11 if we have an uptodate IP address 
+   that has come in from the routing system PC92s. do a 'set/debug pc11' to 
+   see it in action.   
+2. I have chosen a definitive list of TOR exits and relays which can be 
+   downloaded from http://www.dxspider.net/download/badip.torexit,
+   http://www.dxspider.net/download/badip.torrelay and finally, for those IP
+   addresses that are deemed to be 'bad':
+   http://www.dxspider.net/download/badip.global. I have added the following 
+   lines to my /spider/local_cmd/crontab:
+
+24 * * * * spawn('cd /spider/local_data; wget -qN http://www.dxspider.net/download/badip.torexit')
+24 * * * * spawn('cd /spider/local_data; wget -qN http://www.dxspider.net/download/badip.torrelay')
+24 * * * * spawn('cd /spider/local_data; wget -qN http://www.dxspider.net/download/badip.global')
+25 * * * * run_cmd('load/badip')
+
+   The tor files are downloaded from https://lists.fissionrelays.net/tor/ at 
+   15 minutes past every hour, please would you use some other minute than
+   23 or 24 to get your own local copies. 
+
+   A 'set/debug badip' will show you what is being blocked. 
+3. Fix set/badip so that it appends new IP addresses correctly.

 1. Add baddx on incoming callsign in RBN.
 2. Search for all /spider/local_data/badip.* files to allow more control on
