RE: Various Polysic modifications

2013-12-29 by <josh.nursing@gmail.com>

This is my dream repair and mod job! Very impressive, Terje.


Instead, here's what I have:


1. Part of the repair was ok: managed to remove the old battery, clean up the board, do a lot of point-to-point testing and most of the power calibration (cool!), I still get stuck on the part using Tape as only LEDs 1-4 will light up, and not 7-8 despite turning the required trimmers.


My MG and Cutoff/Resonance/Envelopes are still not working...


Unfortunately, these:


2. Contacted Old Crow for his board cloning service - No reply...


3. Ordered parts for a clone from Newark Canada, but some are still on back-order, so my parts set is incomplete.


4. Ordered the PCB for KLM-367 from Jed, but Canadian Post 'delivered' it to some poor soul residing in my neighbourhood (I don't know who), and who wasn't taken enough with the spirit of Christmas to bring the package to its rightful owner. Jed has been very cool about it so I may still get another one from him (many thanks, Jed).


5. With all the ICs I ordered new, effected replacement and testing, still no luck with MG,Cutoff/Res/Envelope.
