Hi,
	I use both JavaTc and Wintesla, out of the two JavaTc is MUCH more
accurate, but I fins Wintesla so much easier and quicker to use. So I do my
rough designs with Wintesla and get ball-park figures then use Wintesla for
more accurate information.

	Saying that I haven't had such a large discrepancy as you describe,
usually both programs agree to around a couple of percent.

	Which values were so far out ?

	Derek..
