Double would be good If Kevin doesn't take it, I will. Files are Eagle, ran the gerbers, would like to check them at work but should be good to go. Chris

Nice ride Nate! I have been lax this winter about working out (pretty much haven't). I went out a week or so ago to do an 18-22mi ride, and bonked at about 10 miles, to the point where I was wondering if I was going to make it home. Did a bit over 16, and did make it home. I knew there was no one at home or able to come rescue me, so I had to do it myself Strange that I rode 18 miles just fine in January on a rare nice day. I did another 16 mile ride last week and got tired, but not as bad as the first one. Just really out of shape I guess, and in two months. Jim: nothing at all wrong with clips and straps. I didn't switch to clipless until last year, but could go back. I'm using eggbeaters (and occasionally a pair of Time ATACs) and will stick with mountain shoes instead of road shoes cuz you can walk in them. My normal pedals w/clips/straps would not fit tennis shoes or whatever, and I have narrow feet. I've used some Avocet M30 touring shoes for years. The biggest thing is that the soles are stiff enough. If you like sandals, the Keens should be great.

Single or double sided? I might have something...

Looks real nice Vicki. Brooks FTW! I like the color. I've ridden the same Brooks Professional for ~40 years. Heavy compared to Italian plastic saddles, but big deal (for me).

Happy Birthday Doug!

Happy Birthday indeed!

I thought I recalled mine as being rated for 60V hands-on, and 300V total. Couldn't find that in Pomona's datasheet now though.

Backwards. FMs are lower ESR. Not sure if reliability is higher or not. FCs are available in more sizes however. Pana also has a newer series out called FR as well.

Plus boutique caps are only 85C rated, whereas good PSU caps such as the FM/FC etc. are usually 105C rated, and longer life. It is hard to find much in the way of specs for most boutique caps also.

Those are only rated for 300VDC (or RMS) MAX

Had ComEd out today anyway (didn't cancel the appointment I had made), and they took it! Yay! I was at work, but had removed the railing from the staircase, instructed both of my sons on how to remove the doors (both refrigerator and house), plugged it in to make sure it worked (a requirement from ComEd). Their movers apparently used a blanket and some kind of moving strap (good call Dan!). One of them commented on how heavy it was ("this is all metal, not like they build them today").

Yes...

Oh, is this one of those groups where they get enough people that the group IQ goes sub-geranium (or negative)? Cool!

That relay supposedly crosses over to this NTE part: http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/NTE/R40-11D2-12/?qs=e2FdSZXTP2ZSMFLmZpXHow%3d%3d

How are you with soldering? If it were me, I would probably resolder the connections to the big black cubes. Touch the iron to each connection and add a bit of solder. Try to make sure they are nice and shiny. See what that does...

I used to get 10 of everything when the price breaks made it attractive. SMD stuff in the 100s though.

Reading that made me smile! Thanks Tyll!

I'd recommend that you read your welcome PM (link available below) I'd also recommend that you go here: http://www.head-fi.org/f/ a much more appropriate forum for these types of questions. Look here as well: http://www.innerfidelity.com/

It was brought up in the GB thread that few (if any) had gotten one running...

Michael Percy has the 20R PRPs... I would personally build the whole thing with PRPs (or Roederstein MK3s)... that is what I did on my original dynahi boards. Not sure whether it really makes a difference or not.

Holy shit! I thought you were joking... guess not http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/breaking/chi-report-jets-acquire-tim-tebow-from-broncos-20120321,0,4688391.story

Unless you happen to have 2SJ109s and 2SK389s around, yes. Linear does have the LSK170s, and had at least released samples over a year ago (IIRC) of the LSJ74s. Normally with the Toshiba parts (2SJ/2SK), BL grade was the norm. I'm not sure which Linear grade corresponds to that (I would guess the B designation). Note that the TO-71 packages is a -71 suffix on the PN, while the SOIC is a -SOIC-8 suffix.

As I stated before Nate, I thought you did an excellent job on the review. As for being a hybrid, I would not think solid state current sources or whatever he is using the sand for (other than a gain or buffer stage) would be considered hybrid, but what do I know...

Doug, Followers of voldemort will never accept RMAA measurements as being valid. The person asking in the comments is one such individual.
