Yeah but your 'special' Toxic

Don't worry HeX they will probly take upto 24Hrs with the stock app and around 10 Hrs with the opt app if you have it. You'll get around the same amount of points over the time taken as you would with normal units.

As for what they are they are fine tuned to look for more scientific info than just a narrow band signal from ET. So scientifically they are a lot more use. There is a post somewhere in here that goes into more detail or google them if your interested
