Something to lighten the mood

This is turning into a circus!

Time to stop clowning around.

I came to think of an anecdote:

An airplane crashlands in an desert and most people survive, however they must try to stay alive until a rescue team finds them so a team is sent out to scan the sorroundings for means of survival.
The team returns leaving the report (the usual way):
- We have good news and bad news. Bad news first -there's just camel dung to eat. Good news - there's plenty of it.

I fell much the same when I "repaired" my budget-Moog (Concertmate MG-1). The de-repair didn't work either; I only get noise (tones) frpm the polyphonic section, wheile the two VCOs and circuits related to them are dead quiet. So is the noise (which hints me where to look for trouble).
So that's the bad news - monophonic synth parts not working.
Good news is that I have the complete documentation.


Pictures shows the new new switches, bought from AliExpress (paid some $20 for 10 + 10 switches, 2-way and 3-way), instead of spending some $12 for original switches a piece.
Resistors were replaced earlier and were like $100 for all. Looked all over the world for something that would fit and found a guy in Australia that sold them.
