--e89a8f3bab8536dd7f04db7f4b94 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 I was trying to do a layout and noticed some components are disconnected in the netlist. Once I figured out the issue, it seems to be that they're connected to components without a footprint (because it's off board). My issue can be solved one of two ways - 1) figure out how to connect without a footprint, or 2) create a footprint. The components in question are tube sockets. I was planning to use chassis mount tube sockets, and wire them to vias, hopefully providing a bit of mechanical isolation in doing so. It does occur to me that this might be violating some principle of design, since I'd have to unsolder something to remove a board - but given the high voltages involved and the fact that audio circuits manage to couple snap crackle and pop in ways that are difficult to imagine - I really don't like to design in ones that I can quite easily imagine. I'm willing to entertain either gschem/pcb solutions or changing the design, although I'd really like to avoid a PCB mounted socket - due to board size / cost issues. Any suggestions? --e89a8f3bab8536dd7f04db7f4b94 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <div dir=3D"ltr"><div>I was trying to do a layout and noticed some componen= ts are disconnected in the netlist.
