Re: Extra-Center-Tap Pots

Yup, center detent. The added center tap, when connected to ground, apparently leaves a 
nice 'dead' center, so no trimming is necessary.

I was thinking of 50K, and I'd guess they'll be around $2 each, but I'll probably get the 
official quote on Monday. I'm thinking of getting them w/ four PCB pins.
