Great move. Steve's posts are always succinct, insightful, and practical. He just seems to know how to get to the root of a problem in short order, and offers great ideas for solutions to quirky problems.

Good idea Doug!

Thanks in advance to Steve.  We will try not to make it a thankless job ;)

Hooray!  Thanks to both Steve and Doug for making this happen!

Steve, you'll do a great job with this! Your contributions are excellent and have bailed me out numerous times when I've gotten stuck on a project.

I appreciate your willingness to moderate.  Contact me if you need any info about moderating. It's kind of like being a traffic cop directing traffic after a football game (reminding people of the Hoffman Library of Info, search function, moving posts in the wrong spot to the right spot,  etc.....)  and a meter maid  (ticketing/editing bad behavior when flame wars brew and inappropriate expletives ).


Very cool that you're doing it!     Best regards, Jeff

Surely you don't think I'm innocent!    ;D
A schematic, layout, and hi-rez pics are very useful for troubleshooting your amp. Don't wait to be asked. JUST DO IT!

Thanks guys. I just hope I can measure up to at least some of this hype. I will give it a good shot.   :)

... (and more best-section than flame-fighting) ...

And I am eternally grateful that there is no flaming.  The way we can post several competing answers without getting personal makes this forum great.

 I don't read the announcements as much as I should, and was happy to find that Steve is now a moderator. Can't think of a better choice :)
I'll never figure this out......
