But what's this about a resistor? Is it some weird requirement to get the field jump started or something? I've never heard of a resistor in the adapter, not have i had a resistor in any of the half-dozen or so conversions I've done, all of which worked fine...
Yeah, I know, it's confusing me. There's 100 different threads and most with different approaches. They say you need a resistor if going from a Si to a CS if you dont have the idiot light. I'm kinda learning as I go so I'm just trying to find the best, easiest, right way to do it.
Still not getting that...LOL..
