FWIW, the only reason I recommend the the use of resistors for voltage limiters is for most folks they just need a simple way to fire 4-6 LEDs reliably and easily enough to whip together in an hour or so without any real electronics knowledge. AND not have to pay commercial companies big bucks for a silly LED.
Dave I will make up a new drawing, I can look for my software while I am looking for the other parts for the radio, LOL. Moved not to long ago and I still have some of my things in boxes. The XYL lets me know about weekly that she wants the boxes emptied so when she heard about the radio thing that just gave her more fuel for her fire, LOL, she is a great woman and she never really gets that upset with me, at least no frying pan yet.
