Subject: Cap markings/colors

From: "Paul Schreiber" <synth1@...>

a) for the non-polar electrolytics: there are really 2 ways of saying the same
thing. Bi-polar (BP) or non-polar (NP). Some suppliers have BP on the cap, some
use NP.

b) the color of the cap changed when the RoHS supplies came out. Obviously, the
manual was written for lead parts.

Rest assured, I send out correct parts. There may be a miscount, but the parts
are correct.
