Thought you guys would enjoy this.

Here's a pic of my 1st built turret board (the green one) and my latest.
what a difference, eh.
Gotta keep on learning, no matter what.
The new one is populated but not soldered yet.
This is the EF-86 Lite II 18 Watt.
Nice..... :D :D :D :D

Oops, guess the pic helps :oops:

In case anyone noticed, those are all 1 watt resisters. A
After reading everything I have lately, I'm going to stick to 1 watt.
They look cool too :D :D :D
I would however, like to know which position the CC'S go into. Is it the 100k's? Those I'll change'
Later

Nice looking Lite board Jac. Looking forward to hearing about it. What transformers are you using?

I'm going to try what ever is laying around. Figure try that 1st. When I get some more cash, I'll upgrade to you later.
I'm finishing my workshop now so monies are going toward that project.
Need cabs for my amps, ya know :D

Coco, I'm going to end up using hammond for now. The only chassis I have large enough laying around is hammond and it's tight. I also had a 270fx and a 125ese, so for now I'll try them. I realize they won't sound like yours :shock: :shock: But, let's see how she'll sound. I'm populating and drilling the chassis now. So shouldn't be too long now.
S2 you haven't been around in a while. I'm building an EF-86 lite II 18 watt. Fun, fun
I'll be putting picks up before I fire her up. Just in case someone will see something I missed :shock: :shock:
Later,
Jac

Just the two 100ks load resistors in the PI.

My JTM 45 clone has CC's everywhere except some of the power resistors and its silent. With a decent tidy layout, hiss and hum should be almost totally eliminated.

There are guys over at the Metroamp forum who have built silent 100 watters. I dont see the problem myself other than using them in the bias circuit. The metal film or carbon film would be useful.
