Important Info for "Heathkit" orders
For those who ordered the "Heathkit / DIY assembly" version, please note that this design contains polarity/orientation sensitive components....
Diode (Anode and Cathode marked in silkscreen)
Electrolytic Cap (+ marked in silkscreen, note that the cap body has the - lead marked)
Transistors (silkscreen has the body outline, just line up the flat)
Please note that the 47K resistor array is a bussed array, i.e. pin 1 is common to all the resistors. This component must be installed with pin 1 (designated by a square laser etched on the part) closest to the electrolytic cap.
(using a resistor array saves some space and you only install one component rather than 7 individual ones).
If anyone has questions during assembly, please don't hesitate to send me a PM.

embarassed to say I don't do paypal....I also still write paper checks rather than pay online!
however, I did move up to the "no licking required" stamps and envelopes, so I am making progress.
inside the 6x9 manila envelope there is a self addressed return envelope. You can use that to send payment ... cash, check, money order, coins, Dunkin Donuts or Starbucks gift cards, S&H green stamps (are they around anymore).... whatever is most convenient.

Tony,
The schematic (notes) and PCB (silkscreen) have the colors of the wires referenced at the beginning of the thread (black, blue, grey). Please refer to the first post.
The terminal blocks on the PCB accommodate a very wide variety of wire sizes and types.
If you ordered a plastic enclosure, please note that I did not drill holes in it for the wires to exit the box. This is simply due to the fact that I didn't know what size folks would use, where it would be mounted and in what orientation (and the fact that I'm mechanically challenged!).

I am not mechanically inclined, I just do electronics. I simply implemented the circuit.

Received Saturday on the west coast, very impressed by the quality. Impressive assembly skills Lewis! You don't get this kind of quality (or service) out of China. Check is in the mail, no really.
Very much appreciated.
