Ah...the pitfalls of using software for safety critical functions!!! An
ASIC or PAL design (ala Light Speed or Unison) with a positive hardware
lockout for setting the timing may have been a wiser choice to eliminate
(99.999%) this kind of "failure". Time will tell, I'm still intrigued by
them and may yet install one in place of my magneto. In the meantime I
guess I'll stick with one mag and one LSE CDI, at least until it's time for
mag overhaul.

Interesting problem... EMAG does have a service bulletin out on their
latest software change. See http://emagair.com/Service%20Notes.htm This is
for software updates that occurred between 12/06 and 2/07, and it involves
how the engine timing is set while in the setup mode.
