I got mine today too. Everything looks great, but I have a suggestion
for MOTMized MiniWave builders that should improve the useability of
your module.

As delivered, all 8 LEDs in my kit were green. This makes sense for
John's panel layout, which separates the Bank LEDs from the Wave
LEDs. However, the Stooge panel positions them in a single row as the
original Wiard module did:

original Wiard panel, the Blacet one has an additional switch).

The point is, that you have to read the two sets of 4 LEDs as
separate, and they should really be a different color. So replace
your Bank LEDs with red or amber or some other color - you'll thank
me for it!
