    Magnum v1.0 Building sequence Soldering this board can be very complicated for some people since the solder pads are very close together. Use a magnifying glass to make the job easier. First decide which charge pump you want to use. IC2 can fit a LT1054 or even the cheaper ICL7660S.

    Magnum v1.0 Modifications Diodes and Op amp You can use other diodes than the mentioned combinations. Try LED’s, MA858/859 (very nice!!), D9E, etc. D1-D4 best fit the bigger glass germanium diodes. D5-D8 best fit the smaller silicon diodes. IC1 can be any dual op amp of your liking. Try the JRC4558, JRC4559, AD712, MC1458, TL072, OPA2134, OP275, etc, etc.

    Magnum v1.0 Off board wiring The biggest challenge of this build is to get all the offboard wiring correct and fit it in a box. Take your time measuring and testing before you start fitting everything in the box. P1-P4 are PCB mounted potentiometers (Alpha). The rectangle pad marks pin 1 of a potentiometer.
