Re: Fixing an RV-5?

Re: Fixing an RV-5?

Finally got the scope kit and have assembled it.

Re: Fixing an RV-5?

Signal is present on IC2 and IC1 on pins 7 and also 1.

I also get signal on either side of C41 before and after pressing the treadle.
I get no sound at all from R36 before and after pressing the treadle

Re: Fixing an RV-5?

Hi, The LED lights dimly for an instant when I connect the power adapter. Releasing the treadle does nothing. Same thing happens if I have an input jack in or not, and also if I hold down the treadle or not - brief dim LED flash then nothing. I don't hear any noise with an output connected when doin...
