I found this PDF file while searching the web for all applicable AS3 info...it's a technical look at operating parameters and why the encryption modules, etc. do certain things at certain times.

Probably boring for the end user, but I learned a few things:

I was on Google, searching out "astro saber 3"

It's on the second page of the returns, at the bottom...

I found it to be interesting, and a co-worker who dealt with the stuff in the USCG praddled off a bunch off stuff to me also.
