Yeah I already have a sched block

 Sched RouteInterZone
     Route Hold 3:712/0 World

and -s in BinkleyTerm batch ... just haven't figured out how to leave interzone

I probably have to change

 Send Hold World

in the global section to limit holds to zone 3.

Will experiment some time in future.
