Caring for elder parents is starting to take a toll on free time outside of the day job. Cylon LED meters fully assembled and cleaned. All remaining components thoroughly cleaned and mounted to mid-plate .

Time to stab all the output drivers into place. The transformer is healthy at +/-105V DC rails and 12V AC Cylon meter supply. Control board supplies at +/- 15V DC.

Garbage in, much louder garbage out… It works well for a first bench level test though.
