    Circuit operation is similar to Issue 16, cut simplllied
    with two IC timers. Lealcage h~ been elimir~ated. Pushing
    button supplies power to timer (pin 8&4) which ~rns on
    for a short time according to the selected 120k, 220k or
    470k resistor. Ihe ffmer' when on, suppl~es power from
    its pin 3 to the flip-~op (pin 4&8), which turns on and off
    power through the 15k resistor to the osc;~ator, which in
    turn feeds sign~ to ihe ~mpllfLer and earpiece. The ilip-
    flop speed is first set for 25½ by adjusting the velue of the
    620k if necessary, then for ~ 5r 10 (they're the same) with
    ~e 6. 2k resistor. Ihe 120k, 223k and 470k are rough velues
    for the timer length. Ihey can be 500k miniablre pots or
    resistors. An ~terna~ way to set times is to adjust the
    valne of the * capacitors by paralleLing others on it. The
    1 mid. is the tlmer, and the .1 is the Dip-Dop. Buttons are
    norm:~y-open miniature pushbuttons; the on-off switch is
    necessary & shouidn't be done with diodes in this box. Try
    a real nickel if booths in your area are hip to red box tones.
    For more infor~tion sse issue nr~nber 16. Ad~ust the 30k
    not for 2200 EIz tone, or compare to the real thing.

    Dear People,
    
    I'm glad to see your concorn wich areas other than
    phones. In the Nixonoid era we all need to learn all
    sorts of ways to ssve and survive. TAP seems sometimes
    too techno-orzented so I'm glad you're putting out
    intro courses in electronics.
    
    I've decided to send something to help Abbie although
    I don't think he is blameless. Yipster Times seems to
    want to see him in jail but they are sometimes too
    heavy-handed. Your view convinced me to dig in and find
    a dollar or 2. Venceremos,
    
    ~_
    
    Note: Please send contributions to Abbie Hoffman &
    Friends Defense Fund, 640 Broa~way, N. Y., N. Y. 10012.
    I.he case is about to come to trial and funds are urgently
    needed. Abbie and his friends nead our sucoort; please help.
    
    Dear Sirs,
    
    I IKSIST that you remove my name from your ma~ling
    list. I was uneware tbat TAP had all these other mat-
    erials, in addition to what appeared to be some simple
    usetul ideas.
