I'm so sorry Steve. My condolences - it is tough. Very tough. May she rest in peace. My Mam went quickly at age 85 in 2008 after breaking her hip in our hallway. I still miss her.

I'm so sorry Steve. It's very tough. My mom went in 2020 and I still creep her Facebook to go back through the old posts and messages. RIP Frances.

Steve, Please accept my sincere condolences for your loss. Mothers and their sons...it is real. Godspeed, Ms. Frances Johnson.... Sam

This Ain't The Way You Go Out by Lucy Rose (2024) https://album.link/zndjqpgj62k6v Example: Very much enjoyed as a new find.

Sorry for the loss of your mother, Steve. She knew she was loved.

Oh, shit.....so very sorry Steve. And yes, SO glad you got to talk with her and tell her you love her. Massive hugs!

Sorry to hear Steve.

So sorry for you loss, Steve.🥲 R.I.P. Frances.

Glad you got that one last phone call. RIP.

Steve's mom went by Frances, I believe. She was a lovely woman and Steve was clearly her favorite so she had good taste. Rest in Peace Frances.

My condolences, Steve. Glad you got to tell her that you love her one last time.

Rest in Peace Ida.. I am sorry for your loss Steve, but also so glad that you got to talk with her... {hugs} 🕊️

I'm sorry for your loss, Steve. 😢

My deepest condolences, Steve. I'm very sorry for your loss. May she rest in peace.

My condolences, Steve. I'm glad that you got a last chance to talk with her. RIP Ida Frances Johnson.

That's my Mom Last night I called my Mom because I hadn't heard from her in a few weeks. She sounded terrible and told me she'd been sick for a few weeks. It was obvious that she was having a hard time talking, so I told her that I loved her, and that I'd check on her tomorrow. 15 minutes later my Brother called to tell me that she passed. I told him that I had just hung up from talking to her. He said that makes sense. He's convinced that she was holding on until she could talk to me. I'm so fucking glad that I called when I did!

In this role the MPSA parts are just fine

Funny enough, I was still thinking about how to do the layout just last night—and then today I saw Kerry’s SMD version that Jomat shared. I have to say, it’s a really beautiful layout. I didn’t expect it could be made that compact, really impressive work. I’m planning to make another version inspired by Kerry’s approach. At the same time, I also ordered PCBs based on the old layout to revisit the process I went through back then. Yes, I remembered the one you posted somewhere in this thread. Don`t know if the MPSA06/56 can replace the MPSW06/56 since the power rates are different.

RIP Stan....didn't realize the connections, Wayne. Steve: I had to look up Ida....seeing obit's that are older.....not even sure who it is, pardon my ignorance. Also: RIP Mike Peters, lead singer for The Alarm. Lived with a blood cancer for MANY years, but it got worse towards the end; fuck cancer!! He did some good things to help support cancer research and help others with the disease. Morbid humor: I guess he went on down and met his maker. (see lyrics from the song The Stand).

Yeah, those are the first KGST boards I designed back in the day.

They are OS film, but the 0.5 micron version was sold out last year https://hobbyspecialties.com/product/os-film/ Only 0.68 micron version of OS7 film is available now https://hobbyspecialties.com/product/os7-film/ If you can use Taobao, there is 0.9 micron version for sale on Taobao. Search: ’0.5微米 F1D’ and you should be able to find the store. Although the title on Taobao is 0.5 micron, the actual version sold is 0.9 micron though... They are all actually DuPont CW02 PET films with special customized thickness, which are also the base film of Hifiman 'nano-diaphragm' planars and the dust cover of their estats.

Well, I consulted the old KGST folder on my computer and it looks like the first versions of KGST were with uncascoded 10M90S. Here is a picture from the KGST folder. KGST with smd parts, servo and uncascoded 10M90S. The designer is, the one and only@Kerry! See this post. Unfortunately, the pictures are gone. Board size said to be 2" x 4.5"

R.I.P. Ida Frances Johnson. If there is a better place that we go to, I'll see you when it's my time.

He’s back
