it works for me. so far I am in the process of soldering the billion or so
caps in the main board and going on my 3rd tube of solder :)
all of the preliminary test are good I have issues with my DVM measuring to
1M ohm. but when the first assembly of the unit all resistance checks

Yes that is fine to use. I usually use the hook up wire and install them

I routinely use cut off component leads on the thermistor board - simply
because they are laying there in the bench. If you stick them into a black
foam block, you can get 3 or 4 aligned at one time before soldering (it is

Another hint is to cut the 8 leads at an angle (so
