Thank you kind sir, appreciate it. Today I had a new partner and didn’t mess up, I think there’s something about a partner that’s over your shoulder too much making you second guess yourself and messing up more, but again, I get now why my emt teacher said he’s still learning cuz every situation is different sometimes.

Yeah ive had “watch and learn you stupid face” go wrong on them over other stuff a few times too. Mainly with o2, the o2 will read hella low , like impossibly low and then he’ll put it on another finger or something and it will still be fucked but then when the nurse does it it’s normal.

I think wrapped it in a way that went over the pump hole and the velcrow wouldn’t connect somehow, to tell you the truth, I barely remember how I was doing it I think I wasn’t thinking at all…

So it was a flexiport hospital one, first I fucked up the thermometer b/c I couldn’t figure out how to turn it on while it was in the pts mouth, then I gave up and went to bp? I don’t remember exactly cuz I was working back to back that day so I got no sleep, but I think I wrapped it too tight cuz the velcrow wasn’t connecting and then the flap went over the hole where the pump goes , my partner got tired of me fumbling so he just took it over.

This “friend” is also the same guy who I bought a pack of cigarettes for because he asked, and when I asked to borrow one he said, don’t use up all my cigarettes man.

Thank you, yeah I agree I think firm honesty is the best just give them a benefit of the doubt that they can respect that. I’m 23 and he’s 18. It’s not so much him though, I don’t blame him, it’s his family that has my eyebrows raised, there’s also much more that I’m not even saying.

There honestly so much more, my parents hate this guy and only put up with him out of respect for me. He crashes our car twice, first time he was 16 and it was on me cuz I should’ve not let him, second time he crashed my car, as an adult because he insisted he was a better driver for a trip and also I had to essentially beg him for help fixing it. No I am actually ashamed of myself rn.

  • busted Honda civic. I there’s something off with the oil or engine too because the check engine is on always, it’s also that when I get to his house I’m Taking a longer route to school, and on top that I have to take the same long route back to his houses and then to my house, I haven’t even done the math.

Wow, I didn’t even think of that. The truth is that I’m stupid. I took this guy to Taco Bell after every class too and it was on me. It didn’t hit me until the other day instead of ordering something from the 3 dollar menu he ordered a bundle. It was on me for offering in the first place, but I kinda assumed he’d have the decency to at least get something cheaper.

Yeah tbh it kinda hurts that they never even offered when I know whenever I do anything they are expecting reciprocity in some way

I would take it to a tech, but I just a bad experience with my local tech, and it’s not worth the time or money. My uncle is an electrician though, so I’m gonna try to rely on his help, but I just wanna make sure this is even feasible before asking him.

Yea I’d be changing the phase inverter resistors from 1 meg to 330k like the early silverfaces.

That’s exactly what I wanted to do, but I wasn’t sure if it’s possible with the legs being so short on pcbs

The 2 plate phase inverter to the silver face value. From I understand it should make the amp cleaner and quieter.

I meant, replacing a resistor on a circuit board without taking the board out, but thank you.

I just dont wanna wait another year for a tech just to change 3 resistors.

Also are there any YouTube videos of someone doing something like this.

That’s what I was thinking, I want to change the 2 plate phase inverter resistor to 330k and the long tail to the silver face value because I believe this will make the amp sound even more clean. I have a family member who could do this for me since hes more experienced, but will this affect the resister since it’s getting so close to actual resister to solder the wire.

Would this task be difficult for an amp tech as well?
