Thanks Robby for the input.  I will check the documentation and make needed 
corrections.

Thanks and 73,

  Subject: [softrock40] Lite+Xtall BOM Discrepancies


  In anticipation of receiving the board, I went over the Bill of 
  Materials that Tony had on the second schematic sheet. A couple of 
  minor discrepancies popped out:

  1. There are 4 4.7 uF caps specified in the BOM (C1, C3, C7, and C14. 
  The schematic suggests that C1 and C14 are electrolytic (or otherwise 
  polarity-sensitive), However the BOM says all 4 are ceramic. The 
  board layout suggests that the BOM is correct.

  2. Under the capacitor listings, C7 is duplicated (both as a 4.7 uF 
  and a 0.01 uF ceramic), plus there is no C6 listed. However the 
  schematic suggests that one of those C7s (the 0.01 uF) is actually C6.

  3. The BOM omits D1.

  Can't wait to get the kit on board. I'll be doing the LVDS version 
  and, motivated by the excellent work of Leonard Leeper (KC0WOX) in his 
  on-going documentation of the RXTX Build Process, will attempt to do 
  the same for the Lite+Xtal 8.3.
