Finally, in response to the first entry in this section, I too read that application note in Analog Devices Audio/Video Reference Manual.  My copy is dated 1992.  I've repaired a lot of amplifiers, but haven't built any.  If anyone else is hip to this amp I'd like to hear about it.  It is a very unique design.  I also like the A75 amp design from Nelson Pass and Norman Thagard, and the Leach Amp by Marshall Leach.  The last two are pretty normal as far as design goes, not as adventurous as the Alexander with its current-feedback approach.

The colors are better in the other skins, but the navigation is worse.

How about a new skin that is like the default when it comes to navigation, but uses the normal wiki colors? // [[User:Cj|Cj]] 06:45, 4 October 2008 (PDT)

Redlinks defies convention and is confusing, making the wiki awkward for users. blue=link, red=dead link, violet=followed link. -- [[User:Robkam|Robkam]] 10:42, 9 November 2012 (UTC)

Or would http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Serial_Programming or the [http://interwiki.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/picawiki.pl/StartingPoint PICA wiki] be better for discussing improvements?

You're welcome to add/edit any relevant article at [http://www.sdiy.info SDIY wiki]. At this stage you might also have to add parent articles to get your topic connected, to the rest of the wiki. -- [[User:Robkam|Robkam]] 10:56, 9 November 2012 (UTC)

Do you have any ideas for contests or challenges that OpenCircuits could host or sponsor?
 
 
Do you have any tips for running challenges here on OpenCircuits --

== Upgrade glitch ==
 
 
Recently the Open Circuits backend software was upgraded,
 
leading to every page on the Wiki displaying the message
 
''"Warning: preg_match(): Compilation failed: group name must start with a non-digit at offset 8 in /home/opencircuitsadmin/opencircuitsmediawiki/includes/MagicWord.php on line 872"''
 
and none of the content -- neither text nor images -- was visible.
 
(It is unclear to me if this was caused by the recent upgrade to MediaWiki or the recent upgrade to PHP).
 
 
As recommended by
 
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T60640
 
and
 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20905654/all-my-mediawiki-pages-are-blank
 
,
 
I applied the page from
 
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/122450/
 
(the file
 
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/122450/1/includes/MagicWord.php
 
)
 
and that mostly seemed to fix it.

=== How you can help ===
 
 
Alas, the above upgrade left a few pages on OpenCircuits that appear to have no content -- no text or image on the page, only the normal header, footer, sidebar that you see on every page.
 
 
If you find such a page, please append "?action=purge" (without the quotes)
 
to the URL in your URL bar.
 
The purge should fix it -- you should see the content of the page.
 
Thank you.

== BOLTS is an Open Library of Technical Specifications ==
 
 
"The aim of BOLTS is to build a free and open-source standard parts library for CAD applications."[http://www.bolts-library.org/]
 
 
What can the people at Open Circuits do to help the open-hardware BOLTS project and vice versa?
