*Solved Minerva Tropic Master model w117 "early"-crackle pop & no vol ****SOLVED
#74

Take a break for a day or two then go back and recheck all your work. looking at your notes and compare what you have done. When moving stuff around under the hood sometimes things get damaged such as ceramic disc caps they were good but now need replacing ask me how I know. If I lift one end of a old resistor and it test good I will go ahead and replace it just to many problems in the past when left in the radio.
