This seems like a great deal. Roughly only $6?

Does it include vacuum tubes in the libary?

Thank you for your purchases.
I use email link in paypal payment to send download link and security key.
This is the 2020 version and not an obsolete or freeware version.

KT66, KT88 12AU7, 12AX7, EL34 and EL84.
If you want to add more there is a component definition wizard.
It has a circular footprint option.
I got my valve bases from Cricklewood Electronics.

I have a new version of the software out now PCBCAD720.
If you would prefer this very fast version put a note in the paypal payment when you order.

Hi Nigel,
Many thanks, just payed for the 720 version on the web page directly. Just waiting for the confirmation e-mail and download link.

A low price and my curiosity made me buy the 720 version too. Now let's see if this analog self-routing PCB guy can adapt to new software

Hi Nigel,
My ESET is reporting a possible threat from the link listed. Any possibility of a problem?

Hi Nigel,
Have just taken you up on this, at this price it is a no brainer!
Can it accept schematics from other packages, for example, NI Multisim?

No it wont accept schematics from other vendors as I dont know their format.

Hi Nigel, once again a very big thank you. Here starts the second biggest learning curve in my life. Starting to learn about electronics at my age is not easy. Using a CAD package of any sort, well!, this is a first.

I would recommend watching the demo video first from launcher page.
As you go along the software puts helpful messages on the lower status bar.
If you right click your mouse at any time it will give options that you can click on. The light blue menu bar gives quick options. You can drag and drop recently used items from the list box.
If you need any help don't hesitate to get in touch.

Thanks Nigel, will folow you recomendations. The software is installed and running. Saw the button for the video, and will watch it over the weekend, when I have a little more time. Kevin

Oh, and a wonderful New Year

Hi Nigel,

New to this hobby, so are the gerber files and the drill files that can be generated compatible with the PCB manufacturing companies.

Yes its the latest standard Gerber and Excellon files.
I would recommend using JLCPCB as manufacturer as they are very cheap, reliable and fast.
Never had a problem with them.
