peter	Re: presence pot Thanks all for your input. In this case, since the pot is being used as a variable resistor, I'm not sure the resistor in parallel trick helps-- if it has a low value then the resistance can never be the full 25k, so the problem might equally well be solved with a lower value pot, and if it has a high value, it doesn't change things much! Actually I'm tempted to just switch the pot to 10k, or try the 'other' scheme, and live with the scratchiness.
