I'm building my 480s tonight and can't find any mention of Q3-Q6 in the instructions. Obviously, they go into the board, but is it recommended to have them thermo-coupled as Stooge Larry mentioned in a previous email? Also, I'm wondering what other people think about these pre-populated boards. It sure saves time getting all the resistors and most of the caps installed. But it also seems a bit like having your food pre-chewed. Mmmmmm, baby food. I had a couple of resistors come lose along the way, so check your ziploc bags before you stuff your lunch into them.
