Ah-hemgh,
Uh, Steve, you may have MY message confused with Jim's.
I mentioned the ohm readout from the sending unit. Jim mentioned the
solid-state voltage regulators....which I must admit are a GREAT idea, I
just need to break out the soldering iron and go to the electronics surplus
store. Just have not had the time.
If I am not mistaken, the information I mentioned in my previous email can
be found on Mark Olsen's website, but I cannot verify this as it seems to be
off-line right now. The URL is: http://www.corpdemo.com/tiger
Hope this helps...wish I could verify the location first though!
Allan (just being anally retentive!)

Actually, Allan,
It was both Theo Smit and Cullen Bennett that independently designed
solid state instrument voltage regulators. The web site, that has the
article by Cullen, is http://www.TigersUnited.com, in the "Contributed
Articles" section.
