I am very frustrated.
I can't tell you how happy I am with the 1050 other than this. I don't mean to bash Outlaw, but I am sure you can understand the frustration level.

as for the the suggestion (using the direct 5.1 from the 45a), I did try that, I just forgot to include it in my orginal message. There is NO static when using the DTS decoding in the 45a via the 5.1 direct hookup.
I think the only thing left is the 1050.
maybe someone else has another suggestion?
