Subject: [motm] MOTM-320 Tempco Placement?

From: elhardt@...
Date: 2000-12-25

Question:
On the 320 LFO, the tempco resistor is supposed to touch Q1 and Q2, yet the
instructions say in bold face to be sure that the tempco resistor is "all the
way flat on the pc board surface". It would make far better contact with Q1
and Q2 if left about 1/10 of an inch above the pc board. Is it more
important that it sits flat on the pc board then make good contact with Q1
and Q2?

Thanks
