(finally) continuing my 47-1230 restauration
#7

So for my first step, I've followed some helpful hints.

I've changed c100 and c101 (installed safety caps). This was suggested long ago by Ron Ramirez, thanks a lot.

And @criageek hinted that r100 was problematic, I've had a similar value to his... It's replaced now and I'm certain my FM and Phono are less gritty and more loud than before the change. Plus, I had a bad soldering spot, so it was twice worth it.


Phono still not as loud as AM, and hummy. Hoping the current recap of section 3 will help with that.
