That'll do it every time! ;-)
One thing I really like about solid state circuitry is that in the days
of vacuum tubes that zap was usually ME!
Of course I usually healed, circuit boards don't.. <sigh>

Nice someone else shares my dislike for aftermarket. They're FUGLY!
They don't match the illumination of the dash lights. They're usually
unrepairable, etc. etc. etc.
I am an audiophile but I know enough that even bad fidelity isn't
achievable in an automobile when there are sirens, horns, traffic
noises, potholes, rattles, etc. Most of my car listening is AM,
baseball games, football games and basketball. My station buttons are
set to ESPN radio and the stations that broadcast the Diamondback
games. I also listen to Clark Howard's show, not typical of talk radio
but I find him very worth listening to!
