just about to order up all my parts but just had a newbie panic attack ref my resistors.
was just going to get from maplin up the road but since i'm getting a load of stuff from farnell and RS mail order thought i might just include with the farnell order.
is metal film resistors ok?
what sort of spec should i look for.what does the W stand for ie 3w, 0.4w is it wattage. what should i be looking for for this circuit type?
i'm enjoying learning all this stuff which i guess is the point of self builds
thanks guys
