I read this before and don't quite get it. What do you mean exactly
when you say ' low signal level' and 'hot' I thought they meant the
same thing but not the way you use it here. The Serge signals start @
several volts p-p and that's what you see all the way thru. The only
time I've had significant noise was with a grounding problem. AFAIK I
don't get RFI either.
