Above is a photo of my Dead Bug implementation using a separate piece
of solid copper clad board,
attached to the LCD module using 14 gauge
solid wire and a RCA connector for the RF input.
Later (below) I
added the switches and the ATMEL programming connector, and I
successfully reprogrammed the micro while in a dead bug circuit!
Originally I only offered a dead bug version of my counter. But
due
to many requests I designed a PCB and offered a Full kit, which is by
far the most popular version today. I'm not complaining because
it's also the most expensive. But the dead bug version is 1/3 the
cost and it's just not that hard to put together.
