Re: Nothing In Particular

Know what you mean. My mum was in and out of various facilities, including hospital, ended up in a care home via Whitmore Way, which would be northeast of Basildon town centre.

Re: General health matters.

Re: Interesting (non musical) YouTube videos.

Driving a 1945 Willis Jeep around in LA traffic ... no flashers or mirrors ... or much of a brake light, come to that (according to the dashboard, you have to turn a switch for it :shock: )

Basildon social services have funded 4 weeks recovery for Mum in a care home at Laindon, quite close to Mike H's old stamping ground. They think the move will be tomorrow. (Tuesday).

Re: OK…so I’m on wi’ summat

Too late now but I was going to suggest RS do some nice can electrolytics that might have filled those holes, smallest value 150uF tho (500V).

Re: Free schematic/board tools...

If it helps - still using FreePCB - can import netlist from LTspice (with a bit of editing of the netlist file). Latest version(s) Gerber files are compatible with JLC PCB (a nice discovery).
