Hello, Sorry if this is in the wrong place new here!

first time to make my own! got money want to do something I can say I worked on that i can use with my music. so this came up! and I have only ever build kits (mainly Velleman) WOulod have used the Tube one but I don't think I would be much use to tubes as they are so delicate.

I am goign to build the http://www.gyraf.dk/gy_pd/ssl/ssl.htm but I am unsure ona  few things, wondered if i could get some help with this.

Main:
Power, I am going to be using this http://uk.farnell.com/multicomp/vtx-146-030-115/transformer-30va-2x-15v/dp/1675052 is there anythign else i need to do for this? or is this right?
On the PCB there is a part saying "Mount these only if External Transformer, would I need to do this? with the Above?
the THAT 2181 chip what model? i have found this http://www.profusionplc.com/pro/gex/pcatdtl0?ipartno=THAT2181BL08-U is this right or do i need to use another one?
where to get the DC Regulators; 7815, 7915, 78L12, 79L121 DC?
the Rotory switches unsure what it means so i  found these need to knwo if i am have it right? http://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/rotary-switches/0665196/ and http://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/rotary-switches/0665196/
and MOST OF ALL the Dimensions of the Front and BAck Panel of the 19" rack case, I will be using a 2U one, I would Like to knwo of the size of holes i have to cut ands the lay out.

Little importance;
what is a Bridge reflector, round type? and where would i get it? do I need a PSU PCB?
Can I use a LED Meter insted of the 1mA DC Full scale meter? ifi  can then would a mono level work fine?
the PCB for this I have found one that is this one but no reply yet, and one on here by Gustav. but not sure which of his is for this?

also if others are trouble but got bits that i don't pleae let me knwo where to get these bits,

I have the Resistors (Metal Film Resistor 0.25W 1% from BitsBox.co.uk) and Capacitors from same place apart from Tantalum ones as didn't have the higher V'

thank you.

sorry if it's in wrong place and to much to ask.
 
THAT chips, all regulators, Lorlin rotary switches, W04 bridge rectifier are usually available at Farnell , might be better to buy from one supplier to save on extra postage. Farnell's search function is very bad IMO it takes quite a while to find stuff!!

The power transformer could be 30VA 2 x 15 / 18V, 18V is better for extra meter lights & led switches if you need them

Gustav has the PCB's in the white market

Maybe put this in the GSSL help thread, you should get detailed replies in there?
 
thank you for the reply :)

So it's the GSSL PCB I need then? i dont' knwo what one of his it is!

and I'll change it to a 18V then thank you

how do i move it?
