Chris,

I'll look up the datasheet at home this evening.  I've previously built one
of these into a circuit on a breadboard using the schematic from Barry's
book and it sounded great!

The only downside on the resonance circuit was that it wanted a 5K reverse
log taper pot.  I used a regular 5K log pot and it worked, but control was
backward (turn knob to the left to increase...)
