Re: Poly-800 short-circuit damage diagnosis.

Found it!

It seems something is loose around the FM-800 pot, that's all, so the NJM2609 is fine and dandy.

Bill, I certainly would have checked that same section/mod too.

I also found a loose joint in the Resonance pot, so the soldering iron is back on the mains.
