Only problem I see is not many people will have access to a hi-speed red wire like that one...............
Simple correction for sure.
Your word on this matter carries a lot of weight due to your extensive experience and technical savvy.
Posts by GMCTD, more than any other, not to mention all the great folks here, helped me purchase the CRD Liberty. Thank you.
But I cannot help but feel on the edge of my comfort zone.
Splicing a circuit board and wiring into a loom of wires pushes me to the brink. If it were not for the extensive history of the first generation, which I read through, this kit would not have been considered. It was my choice to purchase this kit for $100. And For $175 more assembled I chose to do the homework and gain the skills to assemble the kit myself. I have the 0.015 solder, 15w iron, spectacles, multimeter and shaky hands, what more do I need? Plans, pictures and text, check.
First, I heard of resistors at the edge of specifications, what is a resistor anyway?
Then a trace where it does not belong, scratch that, no big deal.
You are correct JD, the little red jumper has me stumped.
When I was in high school there were 'lek-troniks dudes that could have helped me out. Now there are only older guys that could help me if I can find them, when I look around here, have to look harder.
I am freaked at the huge amount of technology in our society that we cannot fix!!! Let alone explain to someone else.
Please help Mr. Wizard.
