2) I used 2MFD's of capacitance (two 1MFD's in parallel) Two R.S. p/n 272-1055 work fine. Remember that about 90 Volts will appear across red & green at ring, so the caps should be rated at 100VDC+. 3) I ended up with a final series resistance value (100 ohm + pot) of 2.75K. I speculate that one could probably use 2MFD and a fixed 2.7K resistor and do the job 90% of the time The adjustment of the pot is not very critical. Changes of +/- 1K made little difference in the performance of the circuit. Hope it works as well for you as it did for me. Mike McCauley --------------------------------------- THE LOST BOYS * FACTOR 4 * NUKEBUSTERS COPY PARTY --------------------------------------- On 21-23 September 1989 the 3rd copy party in New Zealand was held. It was held in an average sized house in Auckland, NZ owned by Daryn/TLB.The few people present were 3 members of TLB, 4 from Nukebusters, 4 Factor Four members and 2 from New Zealand Quality Distributors who travelled by plane from NZs South Island (Auckland is in North Island!). Also some other people turned up occasionally during the weekend. Krypton/NZ Express arrived but the lamer was told to piss off (one of the coolest parts of the party!!!) Some party activities were : Pool playing, Games playing, Spacies playing Video watching, Eating, Drinking and thats about it. Most of the new stuff was brought by Porsche of Nukebusters. The main problem with the party was lack of people, perhaps there will be another party in NZ....if so heaps more organising/inviting needs to be done. Even if every member of every slightly non-lame NZ crew came there would be only about 30 people and at least half the people would have already met or talked to each other before.
