    It's tricky to get the male coax connectors in and out. Of course you have to remove the flat nuts at the bottom that hold them steady, but then you need to CAREFULLY nudge one down a little then the other (they sorta of only go down a couple turns at a time until the top of the PCB is freed)...

    Gasoline prices Skyrocketing!

    I had filled my Pontiac up two daze before gas finally went to $3 a gallon the first time...I understand this, it was frightening to try and cope with drivers scurrying madly looking for cheap gas that no longer existed, dangerous almost. I'm glad the f*()&(**U saucers didn't land.

    Please, to blame it on one person now is just a false way to feel better. All of us must pull together, it is the WORLD'S trouble. We have been through this in so many ways before, whether in the scourge of illness or the disease of war. Vera knows this, and that's why we love her.

    Every time the president comes on TV and talks to us the stock market goes crazy. It's very obvious that the 'circuit breakers' created to halt trading for shourt periods to try and cool down wild swings are ABSOLUTELY USELESS. What is worse, it's not men but computers panicking, IIRC. Whether...

    Anybody Get The Oppo 205 they Ordered?

    Are there any other combo players that come close to the Oppo? I saw one Samsung for $50 and one with a TV on Craigslist. I don't know if they play CDs though.
