Re: [EE} Select on test resistors

Biggest problem with turret lugs is the size of hole they need, typically
much larger than a through hole component requires. I can envisage the sort
of pins David mentions as being thin enough for a 'standard' TH component
hole.
I thought there may be something in the Harwin range, but there doesn't
seem to be anything there suitable.
