MOTM

I expect many people will get the packages before I can update the SQL server. 
So, expect some delayed emails about "Your package has shipped!" when you 
already got it. I have to do this so I can keep track of everything. About 130 
modules shipped today and 40 more tomorrow (Tuesday). I have been fighting a 
bizarre Win XP issue with USB wireless adapters running WPA. This took 
me...(glances at watch).....5 1/2 hours to figure out. I am about to crack open 
a cold Dr. Pepper, eat a Baby Ruth, and attack the pile as long as the sugar 
will let me. Also, I will start shipping VCOs and power supplies Wednesday. I'm 
going to pester the metal supplier about rails: I sold maybe 8pr in the last 10 
months, now everyone wants them :) So I was caught off guard a bit.

Remember, the Spectrol pots have changed over to the 'white' body version, and 
some kits that had 148 linear pots will instead have 149 linear pots. Also, on 
the MOTM-300 VCOs, the COARSE pot will be using a little pcb (called a 
'chicklet') to connect the wires to the pot.

I just finished building an ARP-style 4075 filter module and I used 
the chicklets from John Loffink for the three white RoHS 
potentiometers.  The chicklets are great!  Wish I had them for my 
other modules.  Much easier and nicer.

The body style of the new Spectrol pots matches those I got from 
Oakley some time ago.  I never could figure out why they were 
different since I think they had the same (or similar) part numbers.  
Perhaps they introduced those in Europe first.  Might have been lead 
free for all I know.
