Stuart	Re: More dumb numbers Mark, you must have done something different on Q3. Voltages on mine are: Q1 c = 4.00, b = 0.62, e = 0.03 Q2 c = 3.99, b = 0.62, e = 0.03 Q3 c = 3.87, b = 0.62, e = 0.03 Q4 c = 3.76, b = 1.84, e = 1.26 Stuart

Gus	Re: FZ5 is a REAL BMP?? Mark at the 2nd clipping stage do you have 100k base to ground? or no 100k base to ground one of the net schematics does not show the 2nd clip stage with the 100k. Without that 100k the 2nd stage with a high beta transistor might be close to saturation. 1.07v vs. 1.22 might be the magic. R.G. GFR is this correct?

Ed Rembold	My guess is that Both pedals will have No 100K from base to ground at Q3. I think that if that is correct, then "adding" a 100K with micro-clips, to the Great one, would be a great test. Ed R.
