[sdiy] inexpensive chips for oscillators (still learning...)

[KD KD]

4047 has serious driving issue, easy to blow the divide output stages, are much
better of with a regular VCO driving a 4013 if you want sub octaves
model SH101 etc.
and the outs with diodes and resistor to AG.

You wont get any quality oscillations if you focus on price only.
