Guys - it's finished. It sounds great!  ;D - no buzzes or RF now it's in it's enclosure.

Can I say a huge thank you to everyone who helped - I learned so much from building this and I'm not sure I would have finished if not for everyone's advice.

Here's some pictures...

Can't take my eyes off that blonde on the far wall though   :P

Just a postscript for anyone building this kit in the future.

The instructions for the GGG Tycobrahe Octavia have now been changed on the GGG website to reflect the original voltages I posted up ie. the version with the transistor orientation per the circuit diagram that goes with the kit. JD from GGG has confirmed that the voltages in the instructions were for the older reversed transistor version. So you can take your pick in terms of which way you orient Q1 and you can use the table of transistor voltages I posted earlier in this thread as a reference to check your voltages with either version.

JD Sleep at GGG is a great person to deal with by the way. Just wanted to give him a plug. I'm certainly planning on building more of his kits.
