MOTM

Well I finally broke down and decided to do my motm miniwave - with 
the aid of Larry's 'manual'.  What a big help - thanks for taking the 
time to do that!

I started to remember the nightmare of doing wiring without much of a 
road map (labels) and it really tries my dwindling patience!  
Although there are indeed labels on the Blacet board - its just not 
the same...and of course I got ahead of myself and did some board 
wires then panel wires and ended up with a mish-mash of a web.  I got 
if figured out though, slowed my heart-rate down(took the meds) and 
plugged her in- 

and the little lights lit! and they counted in the proper binary 
manner - I'm amazed.  Someday I'll actually plug the thing in to a 
system and see if it ALL works...now thats the test isn't it?

Oh - and just to drive some folks crazy - I did use aqua leds for the 
bank and orange for the wave - looks pretty festive!

I am starting to get the idea, however, that all my homeless modules 
laying out all over the place in my studio - are conspiring against 
me and my Kurzweil - possibly looking to assimilate us!  If you don't 
hear from me in the next week or so....?!?!?!?

Lastly - I did use epoxy to secure the leds - this may be sacrilege, 
but actually it pops right off the panel free and clear if you have a 
change of heart.  The bonus being that if you 'build up a couple 
layers of epoxy - it acts as a VERY effective strain-relief for the 
little guys - those leds have pretty wanky little leads - huh?
