Thanks for the flowers. I have been a long time, learning to slow down a hair so I don't break things. Old age and its infirmity's are the major slowdown today, as I think can be expected when the calendar has already been tossed out for a new one 80 times on my watch. But now my gcode typo's do that breaking things for me. :( My "machining" experience has been, up till I found this list nearly 11 years ago (10/30/04 according to the subscription confirmation) after I had retired, very very sparse and spread out over about 55 years. I have learned a heck of a lot more from the real experts lurking on this list, than I can ever repay by teaching my version of electronics gained from the experience of serviceing electronics since 1948. Mostly broadcast stuff since the early 60's. I don't mind paying it back when I can. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
