Re: Almost finishet BitX
FYI...
Here in the US, tap washers (i.e. faucet washers) come in various sizes,
from over 1 inch OD down to less than 1/4 inch OD. For my first BITX20
I used those that were for bathroom basin

Re: mods
Farhan,

choice of component values. You could

Dear Farhan and friends,
