Thanks, Bill! I keep telling myself I'm having fun... ;) I was wondering if there was a way to add 1 meg ohm of resistance to the test unit volume control, but realized it would probably make it either unlowerable or unraisable past a certain point... So I guess that wouldn't be an answer... lol

One other thing, my shadow meter is inoperative- it is connected, etc, but whatever the magnetic field affects to create the shadow is not there at all, so I can't judge signal strength by that meter! Is there a way to rig in a temporary needle type meter to gauge the signal strength? I understand now why the shadow meter needs to be set up first!
