[sdiy] bucket brigade circuit

[Harry Bissell Jr]

Gack, no !!!

The BBD 'does' get worse, but if you lower the clock
enough to get it really bad, you would break into the
audio range and the clock bleedthrough would be
VERY LOUD !!!

BBD is the wrong tool for the application, well hell
from almost EVERY application :^P
