Gary:

I do understand the circuit, but I was thrown off by the numbering. 
Yes, L1 and L5 trace directly from the SPDIF output pin (see pic -
circled).  They trace from pin 1 or 2 on the Xilinx chip through the
two resistors you mentioned - in SB2 they are R2 and R3.   I just
wanted to clarify what you meant by the "junction" of the resistors in
your original post.

Thanks for your concern.  I think I will get it right - I just want to
double check before removing SMDs.  They are very tough to work on.

BTW, I have returned L8/L9 to their homes.
