First off, thanks Ladyada for such a great resource and website. I was hoping to postpone my first post until I finished building my WaveBubble, but I have a question.
On your schematic, in the power supply section of the lm2733x right past D1, you mention I should have +6V, but I am reading around +13V
Doing the math for the lmx2733x, R1=120K and R2=12K, which should give us 13.53V, which is what I'm getting. So do I need to change my R1 to get 5V out?
