a new Show Prole to ready Element for
the next show; the Show Prole he’s load-
ing has a CD player assigned to Channel
10. Obviously, there’s a conict.
Instead of blindly changing the channel source
and interrupting audio that’s on-the-air, Element
queues the new source. When the board op is
nished with the satellite feed, he turns the
channel Off and the CD player automatically

current Show Prole, resetting the Show Pro-
le’s default settings. All is well, and your jock
once again knows where his towel is.
