[ARDF] My PicCon "script"

This is the script I used to program each of the PicCons at the Texas
ARDF Championship last weekend (where several of the transmitters gradually
drifted in time during the course of the event, leading to significant
overlaps.) This specific example is for MOH. I'd appreciate feedback from
the more savvy PicCon users if there is anything I'm doing wrong:
C123133518# Set Morse code ID to WM5R
A10100 Set a transmission delay of one minute duration
A20056 Morse code sequence is 56 seconds long (leaving 4 seconds for ID)
A30500 Transmission loop time is 5 minutes
A40000 No initial delay time
A50000 Run until commanded to stop
B188 Set Morse code sequence to default code speed
B220 Set Morse code ID to 20 WPM
B371 Set Morse code tone to ~700 Hz
D4 While holding down button, set IARU transmitter ID to MOH
C411123# Set transmission sequence order beginning with three delays
Start with SW1
Anything obvious that I was doing wrong? For at least the first several
cycles, everything sounded like it was in proper timing and sequence, but
by the time of the first start three hours later, some of the transmitters
had drifted by as much as 30 seconds.
