[time-nuts] OCXO Support Board

[Bob kb8tq]

Hi

I would toss in:

If you are starting from scratch, pick a program that allows you to easily 
enter schematics as well as PCB layouts. Take the time to learn both sides
of the program. That will give you an automated check between the schematic
and the layout….. It also gives you a document to go back to / hand to others
to show what the board was intended to do.

Also went back to look at the OCXO boards I released in 2018, found a problem on the board with no Amp, the SMA is not grounded. Easy to fix, but if some one wants new Gerber will publish it.Always try to have a third party check my designs. To many designs 30 this year.
