I surely have plenty to learn...I have mostly vague ideas at best about
how HS20 r2 works.

I was talking about the hwsim test.

And, my customers are very interested in our test gear supporting HS20 r2,
so hopefully I can use and help improve whatever code and documentation
is needed.

Thanks,
Ben
