OK, time to be naive and perhaps a little incredulous:

Do you really end up with low noise, clean circuits by doing this? I gather
then that most of the circuits you're working on are not too sensitive to
board layout.. even VCO's? 

Ad hoc comments on this issue are welcome - when I eventually get around to
building my modular, I want it to be reliable and low-noise - something I
can spend my time playing rather than repairing...

Thanks
