Heh, my favorite machine to this day is an old P100 SMP system, if only because of the huge amounts of RF interference that thing blew out with the case open at pretty much dead on 100.2MHz. I used to run that with the case open and aim the open side towards my neighbor's stereo, which was always tuned to a particularly obnoxious top-40 station at 100.3MHz FM and turned up to absurd volumes 20+ hours a day...it would make that station unlistenable for them. Station in question: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KKRZ If I hadn't moved to Salem, where that station isn't such a major problem, I'd probably still be filing FCC complaints about it's signal splattering all over the band... you can hear that station on nearly all vacant frequencies from 90-105MHz anywhere in a 30 mile or so radius around their transmitter... -- Paul Johnson baloo@ursine.ca
