Hey, this means I won't be alone in the next couple of nights of troubleshooting *my* recently-built 300. Mine seems fine except that the sine and tri wave outputs are weak and buzzy; I haven't been able to calibrate it yet, so maybe that will put things right. Life can really get in the way of building/calibrating modules--what a pain! ;) David. > -----Original Message----- > From: bruce@...
