    or~e for the a;`plif ier. ActucZlly, since 2600
    is a sin~le tone, you don't need a diode for
    it, so rnatrix can bc 12 X 7 The diodes are

    Notes on an organ will actually wor}` if
    you use thern, but they~re best used for
    tuning. Or,use a touct~ tone ph.one for
    tuning your box, cr your signal gener-
    ator. Play your osciLlatcr and yc~ur source
    of p~tch and adjust till t'beats" ~ust stop.
    Remember there are two tones per digit.
    If you tune wich an organ, you must be able
    to interpolate, that is to set the pitch in
    between two different orgah notes. To set the
    900 oscillator, it shouid be between the A and
    the A#.
