I believe I stumbled upon the same test of CD-ROM's Slipkid referred to,
and have a fair amoount of experience using a Plextor Ultraplex 40 Max.
If it wasn't the same test, it was something similar. The 2 Plextor's
the UW and the 50 pin, blew eveything away. I bought the first one I
own, because of tests, and anecdotal information that matches the test
results Slipkid posted. When I got the first one I have, I used it to
extract music from CD's to burn on a Plextor 8x20 SCSI. Although the
speeds I obtained using Secure Mode were 2 to 3X as fast as the Toshiba
I removed to put the Plextor in, they weren't as high as the speeds
others talked about. I had put the drive in a computer with an AMD K6-2
450, and I believe a Via chipset on an Asus P5A board. I called Plextor
tech support, and was told, fairly quickly, that the Ultrplex's don't
work nearly as well with a MB with a Via Chipset, as the do with a MB
with an Intel Chipset. A few months later I built a P3-700 computer and
put the SCSI card, burner, and Ultraplex all in there. My DAE speed
increased dramaticly. I still use that P3 when I d audio work becus I
am kind f broke and dont have $500 or so to buy a P-4,and a Board with a
gig of DDR memory As I'd like to have. I have heard the newer Athlon XP
boards extract as fast and as accurately, as the boards with Intel
Chipsets now.
From my perspective, last year when Plextor stopped making SCSI CD-RW's,
I was apprehensive, especially after reading test like Slipkid poted,
that the SCSI ultraplex's, would be next to go, and I bought 6 band new
ones on eBay auctions. The performace of my first ne was so
spectacular, I didn't want to risk not having one, or being able to get
my hands on a new one. I sold a couple recently, since I saw Plextor is
joining the burning speed race with a 40x or so CD-RW, I felt reassured
te prductin of the ultraplex's will continue.

To me this issue is clear. If you are wondering as some seem to why the
general consensus is that we oppose scalping (which is legal in some places)
endorse stealthing (which may be illegal in some places) and are dead
against the selling of our live recordings (whether or not it is legal), it
is simple.
The thing we are for and are here for is access to music. That's why DAT's
are so great. Thats why they tried to control us with scms.
Aint life grand.

Hiya Mitchell,
Oooh, this is one of my all-time favorite shows ever! Your venue & date
questions have already been answered, but let me add a bit more...
The full show was actually longer than 52 minutes. There was an additional
20+ minute warmup/soundcheck that was not part of the original broadcast as
syndicated in the US. The soundcheck has one repeated song (Carey,
w/story) but everything else was different. I have the full show, and lots
of other people on this list do, too. Seems to be pretty common, I know I
got heaps of responses when I originally requested it myself years ago
(http://www.solorb.com/dat-heads/digests/V3.200/D208#Msg0 ). I ended up
receiving an excellent LP>Dat copy from a very kind soul who had an
original BBC vinyl disc (used for broadcasting) in his collection, I'd be
happy to spin you a copy for blanks & postage if you like. Just remove the
'nospam' in my email addy.

Klay is quite correct about the usage of BNC connectors. High Frequency test
equipment almost exclusively uses BNC connectors. Where I work we write
calibration procedures for this test equipment. The connectors are tested
using a gauge to make sure there is no problem with the connectors. An
example of one of these gauges is on this page
http://www.pmk.com/news18.htm. Your connector may be worn or damaged.
