I was told a KiCAD project archive is not really fully contained, ready to run on any other machine. One must add all kind of extra resources. I tried to add some library files I created and used for this example. I hope it is a complete example and can be executed on other systems. I suspect some library files must be placed in the KiCAD folder somewhere. See attached project.

During translation from LTSpice to KiCAD I had to find all kind of work-around changes to get it running in KiCAD. Most any step had the KiCAD workbench crashing.
Next project I will go trough the same painful trial-and-error steps I will save the intermediary stage and I will post the test project here.
