Build the circuit as shown. Place the clear cable holder on the color LED

(D8) and the black cable holder on the phototransistor (Q4), then place

the fiber optic cable into the holders as far as it will go. For best

performance the cable should stand straight up in the holders, without

bending them.
Turn on slide switch (S1) and vary the amount of light shining into the

photoresistor (RP). You hear sound from the speaker (SP2), unless

there is no light on the photoresistor. Move the lever on the adjustable

resistor (RV) around to vary the amount of echo on the sound.
