Supply

The PARTS LIST notes the parts you'll need.  The Board contains letters
identifying where the components are to be mounted.  Also if appropriate,
you'll see some outlines which indicate the position or direction that a
component is to be mounted on the Board.  A step-by-step assembly
procedure is provided. As you mount each component check off that step in
the box.

SOME NOTES BEFORE YOU START

Due to the small foil area around the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) holes
and the small areas between the foils, you will have to use care to
prevent solder bridges between adjacent foil areas.  Use only a low-
wattage soldering iron with a small tip.   DO NOT USE A SOLDER GUN.  Use
only a minimum amount of solder, and do not heat components excessively
with the soldering iron.  Transistors and printed circuits can be damaged
if subjected to excessive amounts of heat.

If you keep the tip of your iron clean and coated with a fresh layer of
melted solder, you'll find solder connections much easier to make.
Periodically wipe off the tip of your iron on a damp rag (or "solder
sponge") and melt a fresh layer of solder over it.
