Subject: MOTM-440 info + pix

From: "Paul Schreiber" <synth1@...>
Date: 2000-03-12

If you received the previous broadcast email, I discovered a misplaced
mounting hole
in the MOTM-440. The solution will be to add an additional hole in the
∗mounting bracket∗.

This hole will also be touching the existing mounting hole, but the KEPS nut
will cover up
a large portion of it, so it will be barely noticeable.

When the first batch of pcbs run out, I will move the hole to it's proper
location for all future
boards.

Sorry for getting too excited: I had visions of tossing all that work for a
lousy hole!

Since this mounting hole is the less stressed of the 4, you can also elect
to just leave it out.
This is what I did on my unit (see attached photo). It really doesn't weaken
the mechanical
strength at all.

Tomorrow evening, I will add some demo snippets that Dave Bivins
thoughtfully recorded.
