! The wire should be routed so it crosses over the wire from the right end of

the coil without the wires touching each other.

! Find the 27K ohm resistor (it has the Red-Violet-Orange-Gold colored

bands) and form the leads as shown below:

Important Note: It makes no difference which lead is used for either
connection.

! The ends of the resistor leads are formed into little half loop hooks.

! Loosen the two Phillips screws for EAR1 and EAR2 clips.

! Put one of the half loop connections between the top of the clip body, and

the bottom of the screw head for the EAR1 clip. Adjust the size of the loop
so it fits snugly around the shank of the screw.

! Tighten the mounting screw for clip EAR1 until snug. The resistor lead

should remain firmly attached.

! Place the remaining loop between the screw head and body of the clip

EAR2. Re-form the loop so it fits snugly around the screw body.

! Tighten the screw for clip EAR2 until snug. The resistor lead should remain

firmly attached.

! Find the germanium detector diode. Form the leads as shown below.
