The voladj kernel is _spectacular_. I had maybe 2 chirps (and I'm not sure these weren't from the encodes) in my 2 hours in the car today.

Those had to be from the encodes. The voladj kernel doesn't cause that kind of artifact.

Pros and Cons of Hitchiking was great. You could hear all the dialog and not be blown out of the car when the guitar came in.

Yep, that's exactly what it's all about.

Which leads me to: ambient (road noise) volume adjustment? Anybody feeling ambitious?

That's definitely something that would be cool, and Richard has expressed an interest in experimenting with the idea.
