Greetings from the far reaches of Rhode Island. No, it's not even an island!
I first fell in love with soldering in the late 1960s building a Heathkit stereo receiver. That was followed by several other Heathkit projects. I have done several re-caps of old music equipment, and am currently rejuvenating a McIntosh C22 (very first model). I recently build a Moog Model D clone (with SMDs, no less!) and am about to start its final testing and calibration. I got 2/3 the way through building a 176 compressor from Drip Electronics, but that is paused indefinitely until the designer/owner of Drip follows through with answering questions -- a topic for another day :-(
I just successfully upgraded the power supply on my trusty Linn LP12 and I am about to re-cap and calibrate two Hickok 752A tube testers. A complete overhaul of a Phase Linear 400 (a very early model) is next up on the docket. Now that I am retired, every day is Saturday and I have more time for all these projects!
