Yes, I thought of that.  The PID is a 16-bit number.  I don't know if it
is compiled as two consecutive bytes or not, or what is the byte order.  I
have found three instances of two consecutive bytes making the 16-bit
number.  I could change them one at a time and see what happened, but it
might be completely bogus (and break something important).

Thanks,
