Well, that's what I thought...lugs 1&3 switcheroo, surely...but nope...nowt...maybe it is a duff pot AND wired backwards....soldering iron ON!.... Electro-men ATTACK!

yeah weird...

change the 22n to a less value 10n...4.7n..2.2n...etc....tweak n have fun..

its really worth getting a breadboard for tweaking...lots of fun , especially with these little circuits..

I know-I know....some people just won't be told huh?

Thing is, I like being married. Another bit of kit (breadboard etc) will certainly result in cold and lonely nights.....

did they like the chocolate?


if you name the lugs of the pot by their position/function, pot wiring becomes easy and fun! counterclockwise, wiper, clockwise. you turn down a volume pot, it only ever goes in one direction, wire the lug at that end to ground. the opposite end is hot for the signal, and there is a bit in the middle, does some wiping.

Lol...there is NO WAY she could have known about my tinkering obsessions...poor thing.

It's up and running correctly now...GOD alone knows why...fitted a lower value tone switch cap...much better now!

Cheers guys!

[Tom Lauten]
