How's the spark gap?
mnem
I'll be spending the next month dead for tax purposes.
gotcha.
Which spark gap?
Also i love that quote, Hitchhikers Guide to The Galaxy is among my favorite books.

I mourned the premature death of Douglas Adams for several months; he was one of the most naturally funny people who ever lived. All the great insight and humor that didn't happen... of course, he would probably respond wryly with something like "Not again..."
Much as I love this thread and those who hang out here some of the content is deserving of it's own thread as here bounces RANDOMLY all over the place. Threads like this lose valuable content like the link to the HP cross reference I posted yesterday because I didn't know of the thread Tautech reposted it in.

this post about the Hakk0 Clone T12 Controller. After that it eventually evolved into a discussion of the various features vs firmware, and other brands like the Quicko emerged in the discussion as they were discovered.

On a related note, I
finally received
my KSGER gear Friday after over a month; initial impressions are very good, possibly even "Worth the wait" good. I'll update when I either figure out what's wrong with my 2230 or decide to back-burner it for the sake of my sanity.
