Although things may work without caps on the linear regs, it's not good practise. Lots of linear regulators specify minimum capacitence on the output lines in their datasheets.
Hi MC , I'm more than happy to take your advice on this, what should I include and where .. Remember I'm a total Noob and I'm just following someone schematic. I have some CFR50 carbon film resistor,10K 0.5W will these do ?
