I am wondering if anyone else has built it. Part of the problem is that Brian is not very specific on his page about a few of the parts. I emailed him and he just pulled his parts off an old pcb, but that the parts I have listed here should work. Below I have listed the part from Brians page and following it, the equivalent part from Radio Shack and its RSU or Catalog number. If anyone else has built this, their help would be greatly appreciated. : : : : BC237 Transistor - BC237B (RSU 11369063) : : 4510 BCD UP/Down Converter - 4510 (rsu 11516937) : : 7404 Hex inverter - 74HC04 (cat 900-3282) : : Let me know if you have any other information on this project. : : John
