Hi folks!
I had a quick question about the 367A PCB from the group buy. I'm trying to get my hands on the parts locally as opposed to purchasing them from online suppliers. Regarding the 0.6W 1% resistors: is that extra 0.1W critical in the context of this board? I wonder if I can go 0.5W instead. I could go 1W as well and leave loads of headroom but I wanted your thoughts on 1/2W since they would be less expensive. I know that the obvious answer is to keep it in spec but I thought I'd ask. If it's really critical I may just have to shop around and find 0.6W as intended. Let me know!
