Now that you mention it, that sounds right. I SHOULD have the key line 
set up properly; I did at one time. Guess it's time to accept the pain 
of pushing the radio desk out from the wall and seeing what's really 
there. I might have accidentally screwed things up the last time I did 
some station rewiring. Thanks for the reminder.
