that has no sense to measure impulse signal by ordinary tester, that measuring DC and AC voltage, but AC means clear sinusoidal voltage, not
impulse still with low off-duty factor. try to find an o-scope.

TP3 3 - 3.6 V not 1V Step 5
Hi, i have bought a minipulse pluse rev C from Silverdog, and now i am building it. I must mention that i do not have an oscilloscope.
At Step 5 when i want to measure the voltage at TP3 (between TP10 and TP3) i get somewhere around 3 and 3.6 volts... not 1 volt like it should.
The first 4 steps are ok, i verified everything and it is like it should be.
I have removed the coil and the voltage at TP3 is somewhere around 0.6 V. I have changed the damping resistor R1 with values from 200 ohms up to 1150 Ohms (original is 470 ohms) also i have put a 10 ohm resistor in series with the coil. I have verified all the soldering. The coil is 0.6 ohms and 380uH, no shield. Coil is connected to the middle pins, of PL2 and PL4.
The only problem i could see is that R14 and R15 are 21 ohms not 27 ohms, like in the schematic (the resistors are from kit package). For the moment i do not have a 27 ohms resistor...
I have mounted the missing parts from step 3... and looked over the list with the problems of Rev C...
What do you think is the problem?
