Oh, and just a side note...I AM one of the 1 percent who do not use the empeg in a car (at least at the moment). I did until about a year ago, and then, since I had an ultra fine, outstanding, superb, ML Home Dock at home and at the office, and on the infrequent drives around town, I really do just listen to am talk radio. I plan on using the home dock whereever I get my next job, if at all possible. There may come a time when I do use an empeg in a car again, but not in the immediate future.
Besides, I still gotta get my main player working....

And Mark, feel free to call me a noob or anything else. I still have a great time on the bbs, and have received much more than I have given. Oh yeah, both docks are working great now, and are fully functional. Let me know if you think I should post a picture of my 'retro' system.
