RE: Juli@ Follies...

If you send me your email address, I'll send you the pix.

On the Oscons, I used them...

1. Because I'd heard they were good for digital power supply bypassing and I hadn't used them before.

2. Because this post referenced another post that recommended Oscons:

3. To minimize the impact on my dwindling supply of Black Gates.

I used 180uf/20v Oscons that are currently on-sale at the Parts Connexion. BG N's should work as well or better.

On the digital side, I replaced C1, C2, and C3, which are the caps at the input and output of the 3.3v regulator. Then I added the two caps as suggested in the post I referenced above... note that soldering the one across BC25 is a VERY delicate operation. You want to have your cap secured by double-stick tape and the leads bent to exactly where they need to be before soldering. Then using thin solder and a fine-tipped iron, make a very quick solder joint at one end of BC25, let it cool, then do the one at the other end. Otherwise you can lift and/or damage BC25.

I hope this all helps!
