Are most of the 10k pots interchangeable?

Re: [PolySix] Are most of the 10k pots interchangeable?

They certainly look the same mechanically, but I should image the volume
control would have a logarithmic sale rather than the others which are
linear. If in doubt do a full sweep of the track with an ohm meter
connected. It will soon become apparent what type of 10K pot it is as you
sweep the wiper...

Cheers,

You¹ll probably find the distinction is made on page 26 of the manual in the
parts list. Although quite how you are supposed to match the diagrams to the
parts list is anyone¹s guess! Have you spotted any of the other mistakes in
it? Perhaps we should have a contest to see who can find them all!

Cheers,
Andy

Ha! I bet there are loads. I haven't scrutinized it to be honest. I've looked at it as needed and don't have the skills to pick up those errors in the first place. I know just enough to do damage :)
