A little something to keep you folks on your toes concearning "Y" type splitters. The cheaper type utilize very small wire and add "inductance" and "capacitance" loads to the power supply. This can cause instabilities. Locate and use the heaviest guage thats available or the shortest. Perferably both. Wire guage should be no less than 18ga. and its total length should not exceed 6 inches.
