Default Speakers and wire length


"William Sommer****** = Fool"


You caught me on one my pet peeves. Ever seen an FM tuner with the dial
labeled "x 1MHz"? The displayed number is actually the frequency /divided/
by 1MHz.


** " x 1MHz" = " multiply by 1 MHz "

IOW it is an instruction to the user, not a description.

Same goes for the Ohms ranges on all analogue multimeters.

X1, X10, X100, X1K etc.

Instructions of how to get the value in ohms from the display.

ONLY a completely autistic ****wit like you would not get that immediately.
