Re: Bi-n-tic oscillator section problems...

2006-11-03 by stiebz

when i wanted to test my bin-n-tic, i incidently switched + and -
power supply. after i fixed the problem, I have no sound whatsoever.
I measured 1.1 volt between pin6 of the ca3140.
Is there any part(s) that is the most likely to be damaged ?
thx,
steven
