That actually helps since I wanted to number each front end with unique 
numbers.  My intention was to use R100 for port 1, R200 for port 2. 
Except that the prefix may get sort of long, this works.  It'll be 
X1/X2/R1 for port 1
X2/X2/R1 for port 2
I just need to figure out how to handle the silkscreen.  There's a 
thread on this subject somewhere that I ran across while googling last 
night.

thanks
