Hi Bill!

Yeah, I got that...it's on their web page in an Adobe Acrobat file. They say
you should have a .019" +/- .003" larger hole than the lead diameter. What I
was trying to learn is if anybody has tried to push those limits and what
success they've had. Just so I can put to rest the notion of trying to run
this board on the VCD...

Thanks!
