And to add to what seems to be the mystery put some of the new feet to control vibration under the transport. I did with something called Pontoons which look like plastic cylinders on their sides and it's like I bought a different, new, improved transport. More and more it's obvious that there's a lot going on in electronics that we don't really understand yet and certainly
don't and can't measure.
