I started building a clone and encountered some questions regarding the schematics:
1.) Why does this capacitor have a rating of 1kV?
2.) What unit is next to the 25? It doesn't look like the V just has cut off tops. If you compare to other V's, the Vs have a rather pointy end, this one looks more like a u but that doesn't make sense, at least to me.
3.) If there are no units, then I presume for capacitors we're talking farads and for resistors we're just talking ohms?
4.) Why is one PF and the other one is uf? Why is there a difference in capitalisation of the farads?
I'm no electronics expert, learning as I go along, but details matter and I don't want to blow anything up.
