This is something I should have remembered for Indiana's events this past season, but rest assured it will be fixed next season.

Champs could have done the same thing if they knew it was going to be a problem. It can be as simple as plugging a cable into a different output or extending a previously run cable to reach a different output of the switcher.
I find that interesting as supposedly our 2015 AV was based of PNW's 2014 setup. I think that would be nice if we had the equipment (which AFAIK we don't).
