Back from the holiday. I'll be looking at the compression issue again this week.

As soon as you turn COMP on output power drops down to 1 watt again until you "turn all lights on", i.e. push COMP to a full 30. Even then output is only 2.2 watts then. Suppose Wayne will take a look at it again this week. Problem is it seems he cannot reproduce it while we have 2 units here showing the same behaviour. Doesn't make things easier but Wayne would not be Wayne if ... ;-)
