Yes, it is the latest version AFAIK. BTW the PCB is in process, it should be double sided, ready for production at Seeed Studio or other professional PCB maker. It is not needed for a single unit, WD8DSB has a good design well suited for home production. If there interests enough, I finalize

Hi Jim, You might want to check out my website that shows my builds of the W7IUV preamp and the URL is http://sites.google.com/site/rxpreamps/. You can download my simple artwork for the circuit board on my website (at the bottom of the page), and I just used a Dremel tool to make the traces.
