   I always forget the colour code used to code resistors. I recall
there was a mnemonic to remember this code... in fact, there was an
X-rated mnemonic and a G-rated mnemonic, if I recall correctly.

   I'd appreciate it if anyone could e-mail me their own favourite
mnemonic for remembering the code. I'll post a summary if enough
people ask for forwarded replies. I won't be reading this group for
about a week, so I won't be able to read any posted replies,
unfortunately... please e-mail!

   Thanks a bunch.
