Got it working, although now the needle is hopping a bit at low speeds. Will check the cable tips - also need to add some grease to the end as I hear having a dry tip can cause problems (that's what she said). In other news, I'm selling, so if you know anyone looking pass it along - I'll be posting in the classifieds section as well: http://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/cto/5853084687.html.
