Re: ALPHA MODIFICATIONS

After cutting the trace on both sides of R920 ,,,, measure between D7 and the cut free R920 i get zero ohm, those two point must go to positive plane in pcb, so i guess no need to move the R920.

And also i noticed that the holes for the PSU is mirrored on the PCB.. Maybe you already know this..

There is a 20uF cap in the reset circuit, but will supply a 10uF one (makes no odds to anything).
The Resistor SILs are they Isolated Resistors or Bussed Resistors or even Dual Terminator Packs
