    A 17:17:05 There are 112716 bytes of unknown data at the end of pkt file!

    That looks like a corrupt .pkt file.

    At this stage I am stumped. I know it maybe something small.

    Probably, if you can determine why it's corrupt.

    Can that packet be tossed successfully by a different tosser?
