Dotcomformat

$700?!
If that's for one, I hope those PCBs are made in the US :)

Yes, commercialization would be bad. And for those of us blue-collar 
mortals who aren't made of money, DIY is our only access to the 'bug, 
it seems.

I'm thinking about using another vactrol to control Woggle Time using 
my VC Resistor PCB, though as things are added, the panel may grow out 
of the bounds of common sense.
I'm going to add an LED for the LFO (using Ken's $.50 board -- it's 
$.50!), that's for sure, and was wondering about a couple other ideas, 
but I'll wait til I've tested 'em out before I open my trap about 'em; 
otherwise it's just mouth-talkin'  ; )

Cheers,
