|  stable hi , If you tested your setup anyway that you can think of and it stay's stable then i would leave it there ! Stable is Stable so why set back , if i get a lockup or other fault then i set it back a notch. But i want to get every mhz there is and then more and more and..... Good luck !

| I really do it your way Heavenly, When I say edge, I mean running not quite stable, then backing down to stable ground. Sorry for the miss understanding! [Edited by Skull on 02-25-2001 at 08:40 PM]
