VERY USEFUL

I am among a minority of FIRST folks who have been beating on Tony Norman of Innovation First at every opportunity to get rid of that nasty deadband.

While it does not seem like under 10% matters, it matters very much for folks trying to do feedback loops.

With the 883, the things turned off at 10% and don't turn back on until -10% -- this means that you have a jump in voltage of 20%

This is a huge headache for feedback loops.
