Seeing work been done on such a desk full of other gear, odds'n'sods and schematics gives me hope my own method might not be so mad after all (now I just need to diagnose what I killed when a test probe arked when calibrating an SA-706. Final step before it was finished too)

But the deeds are 129 years old so I'm pretty sure the statute has expired now.
My home came with the original title deeds and one of the covenants was "no workman's errections on a Sunday"... Quite

And now I remember why I don't dibble into the Glenfiddich IPA whisky too often.
It's got a much heavier burn than most (extra bite from the hops?) but overall not a massive standout.
That reminds me, I really ought to go through the classic music box sets I've got stashed away (they even come with a program like it was a form event. They don't make em like they used to)
