Re: "Wrong packet type on queue"

["J. W. Ballantine" <jwb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Another possible problem is that there is a conflict with/between some
3rd party software.  I was getting the "Weird packet" messages after I
loaded some 3rd party software.  I ended up resetting the pilot and
reloaded the ``backed up data'' without the additional software and eveything
worked fine.
