[Paparazzi-devel] Reply to:"joystick question (James Peverill)" from Chris

[Chris]

Well i tried setting their address in such a way that the modems can 
talk to each other only
but the problem continued to be present, but i am not sure if i changed 
the mask also.
I will repeat the test again tomorrow.
I will also contact digi again, maybe this time i get luckier.
