Re: electronics program

Ok,
Fillcolor will not work by itself as you must specify the fillstyle first.<p>shape1.fillstyle = 0 'for solid fill
shape1.fillcolor = vbBlack 'black color<p>
I will post the code.<p>greg

Re: electronics program

How is the color specified? Did you use vbColor or #XXXXXX?

Re: Laplace Transform Question

See if this makes sense....<p> Remember the relationship sin wt = ½j (e^jwt - e^-jwt) EQN C<p>***see below for this derivation*****<p> Also note that the laplace transform for e^jwt is 1/(s-jw) and the laplace transform for e^-jwt is 1/(s+jw). We will now substitute this into the above relationship....

Re: Amp crossover

Mike,<p>You've got a ground buzz. Created by a ground loop.<p> All you have to do is lift the ground on the source you have connected to you amp. i.e. remove the ground on the laptop power supply. Most commercial sound systems have a ground switch so you can easily remove the ground. Also, most mixe...

Re: Amp crossover

Yes, it would change the required inductance. Re-work the formula for yourself to see what the new inductance is.<p>As far as first order and second order goes, the "order" is the number of filter stages. I'd perfer a second order filter, which as you mentioned offers a higher (or steeper)...

Re: Crystal won't start

I would try more capacitance on the legs of the crystal. The is a lot of capacitance present between the traces on bradboards, which is not present (in the same amount) on the pcb. <p>greg
