   Ok that is possible, and makes sense to me.   I spent the better part
of the past 20 years NOT being ionvolved directly in electronics, so I
may have missed something.   Back in "the day," resistance values on
schematics were indicated by either just a number (e.g., 10,000) or by a
number followed by a lower case omega.  On rare occasions, some
drafts-people would indicate with the number and the word "ohms."

   I would like to note that I was not challanging Peter on that issue,
I honestly didn't understant the notation, just as I didn't understand
his schematic notation.
