Re: Design Rules Check Errors galore

Thanks Magnus and Dr. Zapp for the tips. Maybe my problem is that I
redrew all the components I use. Smaller sizes. I uploaded the
schematic and libraries I used for this design in the files section.
Note that the lines from the AP out to the input's normal lugs are NOT
wires. They are just lines.

Thanks for taking a look.

Possible explaination: Are you turning off Snap To Grid for anything? It has been my experience that if I have anything not on the grid, and I save the file...
