And how do I fix it Jer?

The resize didn't fix my issue.

I resized 2 pics to 33% of original. They are right side up in my file folder, but flipped here. WTF???

I think I'll try my PixResizer and resize the 5 Meg pics to a lower resolution and see if that helps. I'm looking at all the pics in my folder for these WO RCA Plates and they are right side up in the folder but when I hit the "Attach Files" they flip upside down. I'll do 2 pics right now...

Jim, my preamps never Hum because they know the words..... I had a Bill D modded Preamp that hummed but it was because the Brown Dog Adaptor and I have never used them since. Matter of fact I have 6 of those expensive BD adaptors which adapt the OPA2134UA where the RC4136 odd pinned opamps...

If anybody is bored, flip my upside down pics right side up. I got to run some errands. Don't tell Joe, He'll kick my ass for goofing off.

After removal of the plastic RCA's here is what it will look like. A pair of RCA's will connect to the cleaned pads and they are set up in a triangle. The grounds are set up in front of the L/R Pads. Look at the farthest pad on the left. That's the right channel (blue wire marked R) and the...

When stripping the RCA's out of the preamp, just cut them out with a good pair of cutters. We don't want to damage anything from heating those pads up. Plus, they are junk. I was taught Non-Destructive Removal of components in school but it don't count when Grandma and great-grandma used more...

If you haven't had a C-1 open, here ya go. If you can see, there is 2 shit-tons of solder AND flux left on these boards from the 80's. Don't put too much solder on them when redoing. And, get the flux outta here...... Notice by the RCA jacks....... I have done the Bill D Recap, installed...

Yes sir.....

I have no idea as to why my pics are showing up upside down. It started doing it a couple months ago. Friggin Chinee computers

Great news for the Carver Preamp builders. The Aluminum plates we have been using for the C-1/C-11 in addition to the Bill D Mods have been pretty much sold and the supply has dried up. I bought the last 3 from the Carver Site and used them up quick. I was bitching about the lack of RCA plates...

I'm a retired kinda guy.... I can't afford one being on a fixed income. I'd have to sell all my gear and I can't do that. Starting over like I did 10 years ago is nearly unthinkable.

She's a Beaut.......

Yup, went through Connector/Board Repair Course which was part of the Itinerary with Micro-Miniature Repair Course (Solder School) in the Nav.

A bag of Eyelets for the through hole stuff and a trace foil kit, cut out the burned shit and mix up some epoxy and fill the hole where you cut out the burned shit. Hell, with a board to copy it's so easy a cave man could do it. We had a vacuum box to pull out the bubbles before putting them...

If you still have them, I'll take them. I'll PM you later today. They should All fit in a small flat rate box for another $10.

MAN!!!!! Mike did a killer job getting my Tuner dialed in. This morning I fired it up on my bench to let it run and wanted to see how it acted. Before I sent it to him, I had wire for the antenna strung, taped, rigged all over the place and the stations faded quickly, lost stereo lock, and I...

I have pots left over from installing remote volume kits and from amps I stripped and I soak/clean/lube them and bag em for future use. Old pots come in handy too and I tore a few apart to use the shaft so when you need to polish/paint knobs, the shaft holds the knob and the other end goes in...

The round 2 gang pots have an opening where the leads solder to the boards and sometimes have a small round hole on the side. It may be easier for you if you unsolder the 6 leads and service them on the bench. I have a few tools and tricks to get at them but just remove them clean/lube and then...
