Uncontrolled note

DFONOTE blg re: above - actually registers of both works show they belong together: K103A ends with N?, K72 begins with o? O?, so an alphabet in 8's is undisturbed ; 4th 500 note: sig. statement doesn't tally with pag. - on basis of DFo, should go: o?, 0-T? V?(-V8) ; last 2 leaves (V6, V7) are errata and advertisements
