Subject: PD board design 

 Here is the latest schematic for the PDs along with the board layout.  I'm going to check over the routing one last time but it will probably require checking by someone with more RF experience too.  The pcb drawing doesn't show all the features in the pdf.  It uses split internal planes to distribute the power for the diode bias and also the +/-5v for the opamp.  I've kept a full ground plane as the first one down, so there is a continuous ground plane directly underneath the tracks on the surface.
