That looks great to me.
I'll try to get a move on it next week if everything is OK'd. I don't
think I'll have a chance to check anything, so this and the MFOS seq
design will be officially and completely ripped off.
: )
I love the oval layout. Just out of cusiosity, how did you cipher that?
Math or some FPE magic?
$200... I think if I order 20 of these, I can get an 8U price around...
$70. Total guess, but it should be close.
It's like free hardware : )
