Another bit that puzzles me. The tuning cap is isolated by the rubber feet, but then has a ground strap soldered to the rear mounting screw by a braided ground strap directly to the chassis. This is a very awkward setup. You have a screw that has solder all over the top making it difficult to remove. Why not just ground the frame of the cap to the chassis directly? I am thinking of putting aluminum or brass spacers under the cap. Is there a valid reason to shock mount the tuning cap??
