A few packages including pots and boards have been shipped to US and CA participants.

MLA is waiting for the boards that I ship him about 10 days ago. There was delay on my end on figuring out how many boards to ship to MLA because I was not able to ascertain the country of residence of all the GB participants. 

but I didn't order boards?

My bad! I was under the impression everybody ordered boards and never double checked once I got the pots. I see now that of the non-US pot buyers, neither you nor UFN ordered boards. I'll ship to you guys tomorrow.

Perfectly fine. I was worried that the package had been sent and gone missing, thats all.

Same here - no big hurry

Too late, already posted them

If they don't show by end of next week, let me know.

Package arrived just now  Thanks again @MLA for running this GB!

Received in good shape - nicely packed.
Thanks for all your efforts doing this, highly appreciated.

/S

Pot boards from US arrived today in good shape, so I'll start shipping the non-US destined pots and boards tomorrow.

For some I may not have the shipping address; in that case, you will get a PM. 

Everything non-US destined has now been shipped, except for one set of boards which are on hold due to the recipient being out on travels.

 

 

All except 3 US/CA destined packages have been shipped yesterday.

Of the 3 remaining packages, 2 has not responded to my inquiries and 1 has asked for package to be held and shipped later.

Well, with that I guess this GB can be considered complete. Happy building everyone!

Should there be any problem with the shipments, let us know, and we'll try to sort that out as appropriate. 

Haven't tested the pot out yet, but wanted to thank both of you for your efforts in running a great GB!

Pots received, perfectly in time for the mini dynalo!

Thank you, sir!

I don't think the TKDs are the right pots for the mini dynalo? I thought that only took the Alpha pot?

Bummer, you're correct.  The TKD footprint's too small for the mini dynalo board.  

Since there will be no GB for the chassis, may be I'll do a generic eBay chassis and go off-board on the back (IEC, XLR, RCA) and front (TRS/4-xlr, vol, power, se/xlr sel.).  Not pretty but will work.    

The leads on the TKD 601s are quite long... might be able to do some creative lead bending, use of teflon tubing?

That will be another option.  But bend once right?  Multiple bends may snap the lead. 

You can probably bend more than once, but take care. Note that I haven't used one of these pots before, so I can't be certain. I would nonetheless plan out how you wanted to do it carefully first. You would probably need to put the pot as far forward as possible and mimic the position of the Alpha pot, so the nut and nose fit thru the front panel in the same position as an Alpha. Looking at a PCB and the one 601 pot I have, it looks doable. Pay attention to the Alpha pinout regarding the loudness tap row, and maybe coat that row's solder pads with something non-conductive to ensure no short to it.

Pots & boards received. Thank both of you for the GB!

Just curious as I ordered a std. 4CP-601. I had trouble getting it mounted on the temporary piece of plexiglass I am using until I case the amp (ssdynalo) up. I see from the datasheet that the threaded portion is 6mm.

What was ordered for the extended version of these? Longer threaded nose portion? Longer shaft? Both? Or was extended only available for the CP2511s?

Only the shaft is longer tha threaded portion is the same. Some (me) wanted longer thread but this was not an option by TKD.

Received pots and pcbs in good condition downunder.

Thanks for the gb

received them too. Thank You.

My goodness, they are small!
