Re: Woggbug has arrived

Hi Richard
Everyone remembers that first date with the wogglebug!
;'>
as to the weight...
My 'luggable' rig, dubbed the S.N.O.-
(the middle unit-seen at-)
http://launch.ph.groups.yahoo.com/group/wiardgroup/photos/view/5df7?b=8
-only burdens my aging lumbar region with roughly 15kg (33 lbs). It's
an SKB case and has 4 'factory' 300's in it. (none are wogglebugs) The
heaviest components are the onboard linear PS and the 10-channel line
mixer (just barely visible in the top of the box) because it's housed
in a steel enclosure. 
At any rate this rig (so far) allows an old man to tote around a very
substantial ration of analog firepower. If i were willing to
externalize the PS and the mixer, it would be cut the weight by 1/3.
But in my applications, every second i can shave off setup-time is
still more valuable than reduced weight.

best,
-doc
