1. The Dutch, French and German manuals have different numbers here. All lack an entry for the 8 200 pF capacitor needed in the Xylophone construction. The Dutch manual lists only one 6 800 pF in EE 10 (but two in EE 5), while the French one lists two each of 3 900 and 12 000 pF. The numbers in the German manual corresponds to those actually needed in the various constructions.

2. Must be bought separately.

3. When trimming the EE 10 two-way telephone circuit, 17 terminal springs are needed.

4. In the two-way variant of the EE 10 morsecode trainer circuit, 26 3×6 mm screws are needed (though one of the superfluous 3×10 mm ones of course can be used as a substitute).

5. The number nuts and washers given in the manual is somewhat confusing, as they don't fit well with what is actually needed in the kits. I assume that the two of each with an internal diameter of 10 mm used to mount the potentiometer and the variable capacitor are not included, but the numbers would not add up even if they were.

   EE 5 needs at most 2 nuts with a 3 mm thread for any single construction (for the antenna frame, the double switch or the morse key – none of which are used in combination with any of the other). EE 10 needs an additional 4 for the mounting of the loudspeaker and the OC 72 heat sink. The supplied numbers are twice this (slightly more for EE 10).

   There are at least two different types of washers, but only one entry in the list, which matches neither one of these nor both combined. The thicker type has diameters of 4 and 16 mm, and is used for the antenna mount (2 needed for both kits). Two more, probably of the same kind, is used for the board mounted loudspeaker in EE 10. The thinner type has diameters of 3 and 7 mm. In the manual only two are shown in use, for the morse key (though it would be advisable to use one with every screw resting against the construction board). 9 in each kit is more than sufficient to cover all these, but it is odd that this does not reflect that a larger number is needed for EE 10 than for EE 5.
