thanks to all for the help with the timing question.  Increasing the hz to
400 (in param.c) allowed for granularity of 5ms, which is what we needed.
For those as unknowing as I was about unix timing, I ran across the
following url which explained why a setting of 400hz allows for a max
resolution of twice the tick amount (2.5ms).:
