Hmm...

What voltages do you have on the transistor?

Maybe something wrong with the pot?

That finish looks fantastic! Sounds great, too.

Quote from: geekmacdaddy on July 23, 2025, 05:20:42 PMIt only has 4 resistors, one is 390k, (could that be the one?)

Is that actually a 390R coming off of the emitter?

So:

910k voltage divider resistor, between base and v+
100k voltage divider resistor, between base and ground
10k  collector resistor, between collector and v+
390R emitter resistor, between emitter and ground

Like mauman said, the 910k and the 10k should connect to v+

The weather here in Sacramento has been really nice this summer. It's supposed to be 79f/26c today, well below average. And it's been like this for a couple of weeks now, and before that it wasn't bad. I'm really happy with it, I don't do well in the heat.

I don't know the answers to your questions, but I really enjoyed the scope porn!

Quote from: jessenator on June 13, 2025, 11:04:06 PMFinally went camping with the kiddos. Everything was great, except the sleep part. Youngest and I share acute hearing and we just heard everything... apparently people don't seem to think "quiet time" includes their trailer generators  >:(

National Forest campgrounds are nice because it's not glamping but not primitive either. But they can get crowded, especially on Father's Day weekend. The one we went to is deceptively divided up into single sites and group sites. On a walk we found that there were a number of single sites on the group side, and no neighbors... oh well.

Like I said, it was great apart from actually sleeping. Next time we'll grab one of the more remote sites, or pick another campground. This one is nice because it's got lots of tree cover.

It was probably 50ish this morning, but rose to 80 quickly after the sun was up over the mountains. Only a little campfire. Have to go pillage some additional wood from my in-laws.

Which campground did you go to?

Cool, always like reading about circuit development.

So you have it set up so that when it's in bypass, you're using the dry signal?

Nice!

Really enjoy reading about the circuit development.
