Hi Bob, It's rather curious. Using my handheld DVM in the diode scale, I get a reading of 448 in one direction and 458 in the other with it off and cold. In the 2K ohms scale, I get 561 and 562 ohms. Later on, I'll pop the top off again and take a pic so I can expand it and look at it. For what it's worth, my DDS board is 2 revisions earlier than the one Matthias Bopp modifies here "http://www.dd1us.de/Downloads/precise%20reference%20frequency%20rev%201_0.pdf"
