We have a pending change request for the additional note on this part:

 
Part No: 768 Name: Technic, Gearbox 2 x 4 x 3
* 		768 Technic, Gearbox 2 x 4 x 3
Parts: Technic, Gear

The member says the gear ratio is 20:1, not 24:1. We'd appreciate input
from anyone with knowledge of this part.

I remember it to be indeed 1:20. I checked the instructions and it is.
