Gamma-2 (γ2) DAC Thread
OK, as promised - Here are a few pics of my completed γ2. I have also included the γ1 which I build some time ago. Here is the γ1 re-joined using pieces of copper wire soldered on the joint line. It may not look pretty, but it does the job. The γ2 ready to be connected to the γ1...- geezer
