Meanwhile, Hijack v343 is available, with the "No-Loopback" option

But then I'd never find out if I do indeed have a hardware problem (connector touching metal, etc.) and what would be the fun of that? I'll pull the sled, insulate everything back there, and see if I can get the problem to happen again. If it does, then I'll put in the v343 amd make it stop.

Thanks, Mark...
