Re: cgs65 cv issues

2007-12-29 by prophei

Ok, I FINALLY found the problem!

Being a little bit of a newbie at this, I trusted the package markings on my 1% resistors as
being accurate. It seems that when I bought them, I had my 220k's mislabeled as they are
really 220R's! I had the wrong 220's installed. I finally figured this out and changed these
resistors to the proper values. Now the cv section is working, and I was able to get
something that sounded right.

Thank you all so much for staying with me on this most perplexing problem... it is VERY
much appreciated!
