Nice !OK...I've got this beast singing right along at 88.2 now. I'm waiting for
the breakout box for the AES 32 right now so that I can put the final
touches on the thing but I'm very encouraged by wha is happening with it
right now.

chrisl@adkproaudio.comHeads up boys and girls; ye olde Pacific Plate is rustling around in the
last two weeks in places it doesn't usually. Started southern-most opposite
edge of US left coast and is now scooching around on the ocean floor in
Alaska which is the opposite end that plate. My completely non-scientific
opinion is that it may release in the middle somewhere (further south along
WA, OR, CA) in mag 6 kinda way. Been watching this pattern for, oh, 3
years. So, tie back your racks and put your $2000 and up guitars in their
cases.... or not.

WMWGuys, I have been having a problem for some time accessing the "newsgroup"
from my studio computer. I'm thinking the problem is on my end, as I have
no problem getting in from other computers elsewhere.

There are periods where I can get in to post without a problem, but increasingly,
the internet page freezes (ONLY on the newsgroup page). I cannot figure out
what causes it. I have Norton, as well as Webroot which show no viruses or
spyware, but the fact that this problem only occurs on the "newsgroup", only
on this computer gives it a virus type feel.

Incidentally, today was one of those rare days that I got in without an issue,
but even that could changes the next time I try to access this page.

Any thoughts anyone?Works for me....
