Thank you SteveB for your anality. See everyone, it's not solely me! Other people care about how you express yourself in public and weather [watch those homonyms] you use standard terms and correct spelling, grammar and punctuation. Now I'm not saying you're gonna get jumped upon for tranpsosed letters, or for using a double quote (") where an apostrophe (') should have been, but, as has been said, "Here at ControlBooth, we aspire to a higher standard."

Now SteveB, I've never called the item in question a "96", or even "Sensor 96." I have used the terms: "Sensor dimmer rack," "Sensor rack," "Sensor 96x2.4" "Sensor TR-48," "Sensor 96-way," and the same terms without the "Sensor" part. I have heard it referred to as a "dimmer," by professionals, who were probably just too lazy to add the word "rack."

I have a feeling I'd get decked if an Upstaging Crew Chief said, "Take that dimmer to stage right" and I replied "Which dimmer? Don't you want them all over there?"

At least the OP didn't say "an ETC Senser 98". Kudos for using "an" instead of "a" before "ETC," nmccoart5.

I have to go focuss the Kleigal leicos on the psyche now.
