Mea Culpa
#3

Thanks, Tim -- Maybe it was only in my mind that I had posed this question. I did look through my posts, came up blank as did you.

But, for the benefit of everyone, I did find an essay on the subject which has some really useful information. It's here:

http://www.radiolaguy.com/info/SonnysTechTips.htm

from Radiolaguy.com

These tips include a range of subjects -- probably most of you know this site, but this particular page is not necessarily easy to find. The finishing part is a ways down the page.

Highly recommended!!!
Best regards, David
