PSDR (MichaelRColton)ECADConfidence: Medium

Two typoed Ref Des cells in the BOM spreadsheet. R97,-99 reads as R97 and R99, so R98, the red LED series resistor, has no BOM line and an order built from it misses the part. Row 41 lists R6 and R14 again after they got their own rows, so quantities overcount by two. The contributor expanded every Ref Des cell and reconciled it against the PADS .asc part records: 20 board parts had no BOM line before the fix.
