What is Q9 and associated circuitry (R41,C34) ? It is not on any of the Etherwave schematics I have found. It can be seen directly above CN1 connector.

Thank you.

Hello Doug,

After a lot of eye strain it reveals itself as the Pitch Tuning section on the schematic working with Q5 near Q3 & Q4 the 2N3904 NPN Transistors as seen on many schematics . . . BUT Q9 2N3906 is a PNP configuration. I miss my theremin design days.

Edit:
 Yes I see it now as they seem to complement each another.

Thanks for the input. This is what I am looking at. Q5 seems to be at the top, Q3 and Q4 to the left and Q9, whatever it is, is just to the right. I don't see Q9 on any schematic I have.
