Oh the "Turn of the Screw" columns/book are all 100% correct, it was
just the commercial products that had errors in them. Not enough to
prevent normal trouble shooting, just enough to prevent directly copying
the design. An accomplished designer such as yourself should be able to
spot the error since you fully understand circuit design. I couldn't,
but then I wouldn't be doing more than basic trouble shooting, and the
schematics he provided were good enough for that. Any good engineer
could have reverse engineered his stuff easy enough, he just made sure
it wasn't simple! --------------- Date: Mon, 14 Jul 2008 22:46:48 -0400

Niiiiiiice.... then why publish the schematics at all? Silly...
Bad Tony! I will never read 'Turn of the Screw' with the same warm
fuzzies again.
