[sdiy] capacitor question.

[harry bissell]

Of course...  what I wonder is why anyone would want the X7R in that 
small a value ???
To get a "vintage temperature drift" characteristic ???  :^P

Newbie note... in these small values there are temperature compensating 
caps that
have a deliberate temperature slope.... watch out... especially if you 
buy an assortment...
