Re: Buyer beware! RD16HHF1
I bought a pair of RD16s on EBay from a seller in Texas (Texxcom?) for $8 each. They are genuine.

Re: SMT sizes in µBITX
I have one of these as well but find I don't use it except for inspection. Even at 10X, the field of view is difficult to work with for my eyesight if I try to use it for building SMD boards, but for

Re: Voltage Regulator
The VFO does not draw enough current to heat the regulator.
I am sure you have wired the 78L09 wrongly. The various versions have different pinouts.
