   Hey, would anybody happen to have the pin-outs for this?  Or is it just
so obvious that just one look and, hey there it is....?
   Also, don't you have to worry about attenuating the signal from this
port - I think I remember an earlier discussion (about Sony monitors) where
their input levels are not quite the same as the output from the ST?  Or is
it entirely case dependent upon the type of monitor you are hooking it to?
