V1.1 Updates to improve picture quality and eliminate the need for excessive overclocking

 This adapter builds on the ideas from the Amiga Denise adapter V2, adapted for use in big box Amiga video slots.
 
 The main differences are:
-- The 7MHZ signal is derived via C1 XNOR C3 using an additional 74LVC86 since 7MHZ is not available directly from the video slot
+- The 7MHZ signal is derived via C1 XNOR C3 since 7MHZ is not available directly from the video slot
 - Two button connectors allow for both a rear slot cover bracket button and another to be used, mounted wherever desired
 
 The card edge connector used is from Amiga-KiCad-Library (https://github.com/JustinBaldock/Amiga-KiCad-Library). Approximately 1mm of space is left between the fingers and the PCB edge to allow for beveling.
 
-## Recommendations for builders & resellers
-- To ensure the best possible picture on all Amigas, builders should include C6 (47 pf capacitor). 
-- V1.0 boards can easily be updated to include C6 by soldering the capacitor between pins 9 and 11 of the Pi connector on the bottom side of the board
-- Try the default software profile first, and if any glitches appear on the image update the software profile settings to include the below settings:
-    - Settings Menu->Overclock CPU: 40
-    - Settings Menu->Overclock Core: 170
-    - Sampling Menu->Sync Edge: Trailing with +ve PixClk
-- A heat sink on the Pi is also highly recommended.

 ## Version History
+- V1.1:
+    - Routing changes that eliminate "sparkling" on certain image patterns
+    - Excessive overclocking and the extra 47pf capacitor should no longer be necessary
+    - Make use of unused gates on the original 74LVC86 instead of adding another
 - V1.01 Added spot for 47pf capacitor (C6) to ensure no sparkling on image, and grounded unused inputs on U5 per data sheet recommendation.
 - V1.00 Initial version.
