>New timing with the IDE

I didn't see any problems with that on my unit, but my rates were a bit lower
than those quoted in CT2B docs.  I'll check when it gets back to see if the
rates have improved any.


>New timing with the DSP

I think this might have been a problem with my unit. A few programs that gave
fine sound with original Falcon then gave useless noise with CT2B installed,
and the DSP_IRQ program made no difference.  I'll recheck this too later.


>New timing with the FAST-Ram.

This can very well have been my main problem, since any timing error for
this part could lead to bus conflict glitches, producing lots of heat...
That could explain the extreme cooling measures I had to take.


I sent the CT2B unit back to you (in its original package, for safety) on the
Monday morning March 29 (yesterday as I write this).  It should reach you by
Wednesday and if you can post it the same day I should then have it back here
by Friday afternoon.  I will then repeat my tests and report results again.
