Re: [PolySix] Reparing KLM-370 PCB ?

2010-03-03 by Andrew Jury

Carefully scratch away a rectangle of the green resin on the ground plane
next to the damage until you see copper exposed, but don¹t go in too deep.
Tin the new Œpad¹ you have created with solder. Solder a wire across the
four resistor contacts so they are connected and run one end of this wire
down to the new pad. Tin the ground wire and solder and whole lot together
carefully. Check the continuity of all the components you have soldered
using a DMM to check they all connect.

My Polysixes tend to pick up AM radio in the evenings without the ground
wire so it is important!!
