see the v1.21 parts list in the hardware section, for the following info:

re: R4's value.  Depending on the variety of the manufacture of the
HC132 chip, R4 should be
either 3.83K (Digikey 3.83KXBK-ND) or 6.81K (Digikey 6.81KXBK-ND).  To
test this, type
"bit_set(0x1000, 0x40);" from the IC command line, and when the IR
output circuit is active (as
evidenced by the IR OUT LED9 being on), measure the frequency at pin 3
of the HC132.  It should be
38 to 40 kHz.  Use the 6.81K resistor to lower the frequency if it's too
high; use the 3.83K
resistor to raise it if it's too low.

Hi $ALL!

I just assembled a handyboard. The assembly documentation (hba.pdf)
says, that there should be a ~40kHz square wave at pin 2 of U9
(HC04). My frequency counter shows 72 kHz... So I took a new
capacitor (682) and a new resistor (3k83) but that makes no
difference. Any hints how that comes?
