Yeah, that's true! I'm in Michigan, so not too far away. The kit was nicely packaged and I'm going over the BOM. I have questions already!
I asked Stephen via e-mail the following but maybe someone here can help. The capacitance function on my trusty Fluke 83 doesn't seem to be working and I'm perplexed by some of the markings on the capacitors:
The 500PF silver micas are OK as are the 16 UF, 25UF, 47 UF and 220UF capacitors (I understand the values are approximate and don't need to be an exact match). However there's a large capacitor marked ETR MET 684K 630V, I don't know what this corresponds to. Also, all of the SOZOs have markings that do not correspond either - there's (4) 472K 400V, (3) 103K 400V, (3) 223K 400V. I don't know what to make of this.
