Tommy,
I've always felt like a beta tester, even with the released firmware!
You would have to be braver or bolder than I to be an actual beta
tester. Or did they give you a price break? ;-)
OK. I guess the question for this list is does anybody see ANY good
reason for the Aux Out to be treated in this complicated way? A bunch
of us seem to think that a straight, no questions asked line output is
what we want. We can all mail to ditsnbits, but it would be good to
understand the other point of view -- if there is one!
