Please guys, I fear the alienation of 'the' Bob is drawing inexorably nearer. Take it off list if you have an ongoing issue.

Judging from Bob's patient answers to innumerable queries, from the
didn't-read-the-F-manual to from-one-EE-to-another-EE types, I don't
believe he will be alienated anytime soon. Many years of teaching
have apparently taught him that in any audience there are people for
whom the phrasing of a question is exhaustion enough, leaving them
only with the threshold consciousness needed to scribble down the
answer. I've gotten that plaintive "Dude!, I asked you for the time,
not how to build a clock!" reaction, usually from those taking a
course because it's required, not because they are interested in the
subject. As a guy who can only understand amps and volts in terms of
water spurting from a garden hose - and I have to be looking at one
to get a clear picture, I am more likely than most on this list to
reach for the inhaler if an answer to a question leaves me with
another question. But, hey, I figure I'm learning, so I reach for
the 'Connection, call Stein, reread installation instructions, search
the archives, kick the cat, or have another beer, and try to work it
out for myself. Keep teaching, Bob, and set up a fee schedule for
those who want one-line answers.

I am one of those "EE types" and if one of my explanations leave you
scratching your head, just ask again, but please don't kick the cat  .

See www.utahelectronics.com/cuesprod.htm. You will have to call them, no
internet sales. They do stock the Knurl-nut wrench. Don

Two semesters of EE as an undergrad....
Three quarters of Communications Engineering in grad school....
Still nothing beats:
Bob's experience, wisdom, and his book with free updates!
