Hi Andrew,

Oh-oh. I told out friend that it was a saw output... 

As I remember, the PAiA uses simple relaxation oscillators (not really
'oscillators' in the true sense). Relaxation circuits are inherely
sawtoothed...

As the circuit charges, you get your linear ascending ramp, when it
relaxes, you get a nearly vertical line... Isn't that a sawtooth?

Or is Billy boy a dumb bunny today?

BTW, I'm 29 years in age. I'll even go so far as to say that I'm 6'3" and
about 205lbs. My turn-ons include...
