    Morning Graham and thanks for the heads up …. yep it’s a trip up to Maplin for me now then.

    Thanks for clarifying and also thanks for the link …. I entirely failed to find that. yes I think it was up to date, we are fairly diligent on updates. This one has sat a good while unused which has not helped.

    Will let you know how I get on but thanks as always for the direction. Appreciated.

    Cheers Graham … that’s a great link, I love folks who do these sort of kits, think of the landfill reduced if we could get that sort of data out there big scale.

    In fact before you were kind enough to send that, I opened the box and sure enough C12 blown at the top.

    I looked on line for a circuit diagram and found this little article on line…. is quite nice format (especially for those us of us a little lower down the tech ladder)….

    Nothing new data wise but the format is a nice step though.

    I’m about to do a buy now on the item you kindly sent and I have high confidence of a working box early next week.

    Many thanks yet again. A clear way forward were once there was darkness :-)

    Cheers
