Many thanks.  The original formula is the one I've been using.
I'm not sure why adding the divide-by-zero check would cure
my comparison problem when the original oscillator plots
just fine, but I'll give it a try.  At the absolute least, this version
of CMO is clearly better than the original.

Thanks again.
