Hit it, Baby !!
Tonight I pulled the right amp board back out and checked all the resistors again. I got good readings on all of them. Even the ones that I had initially marked as questionable when read with all the bad caps in circuit.
I decided to turn my attention to the remainder of the diodes since I have them on hand anyhow. Even though they read OK, I changed out all the signal and zener diodes and reinstalled the board. Probably should have done that in the first place anyhow.
It would be nice if I had enough knowledge and experience at this point to be able to take specific voltage readings on the board and deduce more specifically where the issues might be. But I'm well aware that skill level is quite a ways off for me. I've been doing lots of reading, and I'm getting glimpses of theory. But much of the specifics of the circuit function still elude me.
So at this point I'm using what I call the 'poke and hope' method.
Offset now reads half of what it did before, down to -.104vdc. At least I'm pokin' in the right direction. :tongue:
Next I'll change out the drivers. I've already got them on hand. We'll see where this poke takes things. :scratch2:
