Re: N8-more component changes



I agree that 10K would be a better choice for R34/R34.

It might make more sence to just replace C20 with a trimmer cap
(20-40pF perhaps)? By going in parallel you can only add capacitance,
if the crystal is slow you want less capacitance, if it is fast you
want more.
