Due to health reasons, I am no longer actively working on this project. This is why I haven't been seen here much in the last few years. Like I said, I know what I have and am offering some hints.
Before discrediting us, read, learn and test the instructions he provides. There is a measure of intelligence required to make this project work. It's not that it's incredibly difficult to understand however. But, as I said earlier, the process is like a program. The VIC circuit, although appearing relatively simple, is actually specifically designed to accomplish several steps. You need to be able to grasp this to move forward. It will never work straight out of the box without proper understanding, design, testing, tweaking.
I really have no desire to get into a pissing match over this and will very happily disappear from this discussion. I don't need the stress in my life over this.
