I was just wondering what people were doing with the hidden ends of the red and yellow tubing that seem to just disappear under the pedal?

It depends if you're doing a GB1, GB2 or Afterlife/FE pedal.

The GB1 pedal went to either end of a resistor under the vector plate. The GB2 pedal just seems to stuff under the vector plate somewhere (maybe just into holes drilled in the wooden base?). Not too sure about the Afterlife/FE pedal, as there is very little reference material for that.

I'm going for GB1. Do you know what the resistor was?

It looks like it was probably either a Sage M25W, or a Pacific.

If you're doing a GB1 pedal make sure you're using the right d-sub/IDC connector on the front of the Hammond boxes, people often do an amalgam of the two. The ITT relay was attached direct to the Hammond box too. There's some decent ref pics in The Ghostbusters Reference Library, and look up mburkit's pedal build thread in this forum too.

I'm not clear what you're saying here. GBFans shop has been out of stock for a long time. Here's the one on eBay I'm looking at:

That's not right for a GB1 pedal build, so you have fallen right into that trap, that is the GB2 one! That side should be an AMPHENOL D Sub Backshell, part number 863093C09ALF. They're cheap to pick up, as they are still made.

Thank you for clearing that up. I found it available on Digikey Mouser with shipping for basically what I was willing to pay for the wrong part on eBay (if only I had asked earlier... I could've combined with my other Digikey Mouser order )

I think I either got it from Farnell or RS Components when I bought it.

Actually I meant Mouser earlier, not Digikey. I prefer Mouser because they have a $4.99 shipping option which makes them cheaper than everyone else.
