Ken has always been solid, honest, reliable, (stuff from Oz gets here
in the UK quickly and easily) and he's a brilliant designer.
His PCBs, documentation, and feedback via this list and others are
excellent.
His generosity and work in publishing his schematics freely has really
helped many people - I'm definitely not the only one who's learned so
much from studying his schematics.
Many choose to keep their stuff secret, or you have to buy it - but
Ken's schemos are there for all to see, use and learn from.
From what I understand, he does it more or less as a hobby and service
to others, not as a business, which makes it all the more cool - it
must be a lot of work for him, but he does it anyway.
I don't think I would be anywhere near able to build the stuff I'm
doing now, without having had access to the schemos on the CGS site.
They've been invaluable.
Good on you mate. :-)
Cheers!
