Thanks :-) ... good to have a little time again. I'm thinking of saving for the Degritter II because record shops near me are selling it and if it...
I'm North of Haywards Heath. I did know of the shop... at least I do believe it's that one. If it's the one I think it is, the owner shares it...

Congrats, welcome, good luck :-)
Yes, I have an illuminated magnifier. I also use a magnified headband... I can't read the caps otherwise :-) It's fitted with 2x lenses....
Will do. It was quite a busier board compared to the RX-C45, so I'll do that tomorrow when I've "recovered" a little. I did double check all caps...
