Thanks - Question is though which caps are which.

I can tell the C1 - 3 as they are big.

Don't know which is which in the kit. as I have 3 of one kind and 4 of the other

Hth :D

Doh - I really am tired. Have been driving all day and I thought soldering would be a good wind down.

Call me Mr McShaky Hands.

Got the board soldered it needs a clean up from all the flux but the harder I tried to keep a steady hand the worse it got.

Notice the small cap nearest the big ones and its wonky but has connectivity - I gave up on presentation skills.


Now I'm going to get a hot coco Exxos.

Testing in the morning.

:bravo:

Presentation is optional on Alpha builds ;)
