hey Hopstretch, do you ever send stuff back to the U S of A? I could really use some Kola Tonic (Clayton's or Rose's), and I bet you can get it there. I've been scammed twice trying to order it online from "reputable" .za websites.

Frisco Murray Stenson typically uses Old Overholt rye whiskey in this classic Bénédictine cocktail. If you use bourbon or another brand of rye, Stenson suggests adjusting the amount of whiskey to your personal taste. 2 oz. rye whiskey 1/2 oz. fresh lemon juice 1/2 oz. Bénédictine Ice cubes Tools: shaker, strainer Glass: cocktail Pour ingredients into a cocktail shaker and fill with ice. Shake well for 10 seconds, then strain into a chilled glass.

Gypsy Cocktail Dating to the mid-1930s, the Gypsy demonstrates vodka’s utility in drinks with strongly flavored liqueurs; here, the spirit’s neutrality gives the potent flavor of the herbal liqueur Bénédictine room to expand while also tempering the liqueur’s sweetness. 2 oz. vodka 1 oz. Bénédictine 1 dash Angostura bitters Ice cubes Tools: mixing glass, barspoon, strainer Glass: cocktail Combine ingredients in a mixing glass and add ice. Stir well for 20 seconds and strain into a chilled glass. Adapted from Esquire Drink Book, 1956

digital attenuator
Is the electrical test before or after assembly?
-

yes, impedance control.

careful about "solder stealing" if you add TH parts, since there is the possibility of these being machine assembled.

Look at current sensing resistors for the less than 10 ohm.

Quad 9L Active
Thanks! I'd be using them at low volumes for say a few hours max at a time. If they were barely warm that would be great. I'm going to stick them inside my TV cabinet (top two slots in this): you cannot tell from that pic. but there is some ventilation in those shelves, that's open below for the last inch or two. Even so, I'd like them to be pretty cool.

Dinny, how hot do the 9L get? I'm thinking about sticking them in an enclosed space (well, sorta enclosed)

You totally beat me to this one. I think it should also require morse code be used.

Clarification on Blue Hawaii Power Supply
I'm not sure I agree. The extra heat will go into the tubes, sure, but that will raise the ambient temperature considerably. Look how the tubes are recessed. Agreed that the pass device takes a bit of abuse as is, but these things seem to run on the brink of instability as getting rid of all that heat is hard. Granted, there is a lot of ventilation, but my experience what happens is that the tubes heat up the MOSFETs and the ambient temperature of the heat sink and things seem to just cook from there.
