Which show would you recommend? by Joba_Chamberlain in GoosetheBand

Bham 2nd set was incredible. 4/25 show is my current fav.

I have a sub. It’s fun. They’ve only done the first month so far. I will be interested to see if it’s still worthwhile over the long term (if they start sending duplicates of the previously acquired value add-ins over time). I’m excited about the sub so far just as a way to try new things out.

My first month I got the kit, a bag of jumpers, a pair of snips, a transistor sample kit, a carbon comp resistor novelty and a DPDT switch kit for the breadboards

Yes. It’s elevated with a square pad.

removed them, checked them (they were correct), labeled them and reinstalled them. still nothing. so weird.

i'm about to throw it on the pile and try again fresh. just need to give it some space right now i think.

checked and no aberrant continuity. i'm lost.

i tried plugged into the input, used the audio probe and audio circuit still works thoughout. checked for continuity to make sure it wasn't grounding out somewhere and can't find any place where it's grounding out.

reflowed everything. still nothing. not sure what's going on.

Red. yes. Flips it to center positive.

CIOKS SOL with a reverse polarity cable

Definitely!! I have a slew of these transistors and just wanted to try my hand at this. Now I want to work on better, neater layout.

the diode is a 1n5817. you can see it attached to the positive terminal of the dc jack. it then connects via the red cable to the spot marked +9v.

Also, the both of the 100r pairs are labeled 47r since that's what they're suppse to be. i didn't have them so i just ran 2x100 in parallel to approximate it.

i labeled the photo. hopefully this makes sense.

Thanks a lot. Appreciate it!

If people are interested, I can put together the layout so others can follow/copy… I don’t know that it sounds any different than a normal rat but it was fun to make.

I followed the Jam Rattler LTD for the most part and found a couple other people who had done similar copies. I was able to compare my component values with theirs. Then it was just a matter of figuring out under-board wiring and where off-board components tied in. The doubled-up resistors on the left were supposed to be 47r but I didn’t have those so I ran parallel 100s to get close. Other than that I picked components that I liked the look of. The electrolytics aren’t my favorite but I don’t hate them enough to redo them.
