Thanks, I'll check them out! Not sure if they're the good one or not. I used them - or some other company - for cables that had a lot of MILCIRC pins, Y splits, phase matching, and even some simple subassemblies. It's been a few years since I was involved in that kind of stuff, and I'm not sure that Control Cable was the good one, although they're definitely not the bad one. They're not too far of a drive from you - just a day trip. This is the place that could make the simple cables and was inexpensive. They always fixed whatever was wrong, but it was just too much hassle to to give them the complex stuff. We'd miss a delivery because they had to rework it. They were OK for simple power and RF cables, but nothing fancy. www.customcablesinc.com/Good luck.

My husband used to be Normal-ish as far as music, listened to his stereo or car radio when he had time, but thirty years teaching music and judging festivals changed how he listens, not just that his hearing is worse due to band classes but how he listens and thinks about music. Now he wants talk radio or quiet at home, and while thinking about music he can’t communicate a song to me if he doesn’t know the words. I can’t explain what he does instead of humming. It’s more verbal and syllables and he does it, and then “what song is that?” And my son and I are baffled, but our 6 year old granddaughter, if she knows the song can tell him. It also led to a game they play like name that tune, by clapping a rhythm, and they understand each other but it never sounds like the rhythm of the song both swear it is. Red Alert - thread drift. Decades ago when I was dating a certain woman, we went to an touring exhibition of Monet in our area. We didn't opt for the headphones and recording, but just walked around, reading the plaques and looking at the paintings. I distinctly remember one of the plaques quoting him, something to the effect of "I never painted a water lily. I never painted a barn, or a haystack, or a sun, or a cloud." I just painted the light that I saw." To me, that was a stunning and novel approach, even for an impressionist. I remarked that I could be incarnated 1,000 times and would never think of such an approach. She laughed and said something to the effect that his approach was rather obvious. I guess that at least in some ways, my brain is way too westernized, as I often - but not always - see things as objects.
