Floating Mount type "Y" (page 15)
amend shell F outline as shown in the attachment.

Captive Nut Type "E" (page 15)
Male & Female Dimension P to be 0mm min (was 0.2mm min)


9 - New Figure 2(c) for Gauge 22 Solder bucket
Correct typographic error: "size" to be "sizes"

10 - The titles of Figure 2(c) should be corrected on pages 23, 24, 26, 27 and the new fig (Code 1D7N & 1D9N) to read (as applicable):
"Gauge 20 90deg PCB Solder Contacts with 90deg Bracket and Screw Locks ...etc"
or
