Title: new guy build(serendipity)
Post by: dcribbs1412 on June 19, 2010, 06:19:49 PM
high :) I'm new
just wondering if anyone has a chance to look over
some pics before I continue
wondering if the 100pf ceramic cap(C2) is ok to use
or should i change to mica or poly?
also using the SmallBear germs.... anyone have
opinions on these for this layout?
thanks

The ceramic cap is fine for the 100pF. I'm sure if you got the diodes from small bear and they are the specified value or equivalent they will be fine too. Looks like a good, clean build!! Great job!
