 All righty. This is the last time I'll ever express my opinion on the
 list =)

 Yeah, I agree. Moreover, last night I started thinking that atleast in
 Don's design, it would be quite easy to leave the VCAs out and use the
 scanner drive circuit to form a plain waveshaper-thingy. After all, this
 is more what I'm probably looking for. I think I'll concentrate on
 scanners after I have finished my VCOs...
