There is a story, that has many versions, about Thomas Edison when he was inventing the light bulb. He told a guest at his lab that he had, so far, done 1,000 experiments but had not yet perfected the light bulb. His guest asked, "How did it feel to fail 1,000 times?" Edison replied, "They weren't failures. I found 1,000 ways that didn't work, so I can now exclude them from consideration."

Looks like I may have spoken too soon. I couldn't resist checking the levels this morning before I left for work. 49-1 and 49-2 were down to 52% (22 SNR) on the signal strength menu (from the 67% after I first inserted the 3 dB attenuator). I didn't expect to see that all (there were also a small amount of RS Uncorrected errors present on those two channels). Not sure if that was due to the attenuator or something else.

33-1, 33-2, and 33-3 had dropped a little in signal strength too but no signal errors.

I"m not sure what happened...
