This completes installation of all capacitors. Before moving on construction, re-
check the polarity of each electrolytic one more time to confirm all are installed
correctly.

The first group of semiconductor include four (4) small ICs and two (2)
transistors. These are all packaged exactly alike. To avoid confusion, read
markings carefully before installing! Like the electrolytic caps, transistors and
ICs must be oriented correctly to work.

The remaining ICs will be installed in sockets. Locate the two (2) eight-pin IC
sockets and one (1) 20-pin socket provided. Identify the notch (or key) at one
end. During installation, each socket will be oriented so that this notch
corresponds to the key on the PC layout.

Key

When installing sockets, make sure all pins enter the mounting holes and appear
on the opposite side of the PC board (it's easy to fold them under the socket).
Also, when soldering, make sure the socket remains flush with the board surface.
