Burns,
First of all, no apology is necessary. Had I actually thought it would be
as easy as a hidden ./FoxTelem folder in my user root directory, I wouldn't
have asked. I found the setup files and removed them, and then just
attempted to launch FoxTelem as usual and it went through the normal setup
stuff that I was expecting.
The original location for the logfiles was in a older version of FoxTelem's
run folder - which I had deleted. So now I've created a special logfile
folder which will never get thrown out (like the baby with the bathwater).
This was not a "Fox-in-a-Box" install, only because I've been running this
pi for a few years and I don't want to add all the other junk that's on
it. So the current install was downloaded directly from
http://amsat.us/FoxTelem/Linux/.
Thanks for the help, and I apologize for not digging a little further (I
had actually checked a bunch of the system config folders for just such a
folder - I guess I dug too deep without scratching the surface first).
