[sdiy] favorite dual ganged potentiometer

[harrybissell]

Wotch owt fro some of those dual audio pots... some have detents
which suck IMHO.  Once upon a time they were meant toi simulate
the feel of stepped attenuators in high-end audio gear... but in my
experience they have only two real positions, too little and too much !!!
