Wiard Group:

The file "clock in question1.jpg" has been uploaded -
Is this the correct orientation and location of D6 in
the Noise Ring block diagram? 

Question 2 - At low frequencies, why does the Clock
indicator LED flash at changing frequencies? (Flashes
at 1Hz then faster, then slower - without changing the
CLK pot setting.)
