Of course, as soon as I post the question I think of something else to try
and got it:

Go into voaprop.ini and change "Solar Data URL" to some nonsense thing. Just
deleting it won't work. I wrote:

[Solar]
Solar Data URL=junk

And now it runs fine. Instead of waiting forever it fails straight away
trying to update the solar info.

73 and thanks for listening,
Carl
