STEP 2: Broken pointers can be easily identified because a numeric will appear
in the ITEM field. The routine XQ3 (shown in figure 4) will clean these up.
You must verify that the others actually should be connected to this protocol.

this protocol (shown in figure 5). The 3rd ITEM is broken and XQ3 will clean
it out (shown in figure 4). The 4th ITEM is verified as valid.
