Hey John,

Please, please.... drag the group through it! There are a lot of people here whose joy is to read through such issues and learn along the way. I looked up the radio and glanced at the circuit just to get an idea what's going on. Such discussions are the primary reason this group exists. People sometimes worry that they are being a burden, but the exact opposite is true. You're giving a group of people something fun to talk about :?
73!
