Id guess I blew a cap before missed a solder joint. I had a very good
picture till I started tweaking. As a rule of thumb, whenever I do any
board work I replace everything I want to, but leave the component leads
long. As a final check, I inspect as I trim leads. Just some good repair
practice to pass on.
