Great professional looking job on the manual.

Have one suggestion. A small graphic of each resistor color stripping might be nice for those not that familiar with the nomenclature.

Thanks,
Michael

Good idea for not making a mistake, but to learn about electronics, here is a 4,5,6 band calculator http://samengstrom.com/nxl/3660/4_band_resistor_color_code_page.en.html or use a multimeter.

Thanks, I am familiar with the coding, just am a  little rusty since I don't do it very often.  I have a app on my Ipod Touch that refreshes my memory. Was thinking more toward the newbie side of the build.

Is there a PDF or DOC format version of the assembly manual available?

Bummer... it's just that it doesn't seem to print out from the web page very well on my setup, where a DOC or PDF file would.

Just drag over and highlight the text you want to print out and copy and paste it to a word document.  I just did it and it looks really nice.  I would post it, but I'm not sure if I would get in trouble or not.  I could also make a pdf.

Hi Folks

Not sure if some people know this or not.

in the wiki the menu bar to the left the next to the last option in the "toolbox" section is a link for a "Printable Version" which normally give you a better printout.

Hi, Rick - the manual looks great!

One small thing - the color code for the 120 ohm precision resistor in step one should be "(brown, red, black, black, brown)".

Thanks for all the effort you put into the Wiki for us!
