(I)RL can be tricky, sometimes ;
but - exactly that is what our passion makes so......... passionate ;
joy of learning,thinkin' , building , listening da musak .........
life is full of small , important things...
and they are most important when we can share them .
I'm too old fart that I can say that I learned that from Papa , but I was certainly thrilled with his way of contributing to greedy boys community....... contrary to ........... blahblah
I like this kindergarten....... some kids are full of joy ( and I'm trying hard every day to be with them) , some kids are just vain,some are stupid , some are just lazy .....or both stupid and lazy.......... but - that's kindergarten ..... 😉
send my love , in few days, to crazy fly builder
I'm somewhat senty-menty tonight ...... even without booz ;

Zjou is forgetting me is the King of the Polystyrene C.
The Shunty/Pumpkin boards are Double Dutch yummie, a shame to waste 4 out of 6 bypass cap holes.

Mark,
if you take a good look you'll see at least three different resistor types on the piccy, the bulk being 2% and 5 % accurate 50ppm 0.6W Philies.(red and gold band)
Which means very little because i handpick and check each component, each R on the board is 0.1% accurate.
I've got at least 10K of the 2% red variety (forgot the exact number), bought the entire lot for $70, a few hundred of each value on a tape.
The Dales i've got at least 5K of, 1987 production series.
The smaller blue caps are 0.68uF Siemens decent quality polyester types, couldn't fit large enough polyprops there and mkp isn't exactly required at those locations.
The big blue MKP types on top are RiFa430s on the output, Siemens KP where the Rifas wouldn't fit.
On the bottom side of the board are high value 1% polystyrene caps, the very best ever made. Previously only used for RIAA purposes because they were filthy expensive.
(me used to drool at the counter of fancy shops with the little cash i had saved, nowadays i enjoy dumpster diving more than driving up to slick entrances and sometimes a dumpster contains what green bills no longer buy)
If you look hard you can come up with at least 5 reasons for the PTFE sleeving, Chinese fortune cookie proverb says Condom-Man make jokeys otherwise would be very boring arrogant prick.
You guys die if i tell about the kind of split-bobbin transformer monsters i found for the Shuntsters.
(me is pretty big but my Fata says i'm still a shorty, i told my shrink to shut up cause he doesn't exist)
I somehow knew those boards have a severe problem - it's impossible to get those output caps mounted...
