Ctc-16

checked the vert cent pot, all leads to ground are about 7k which is the same as the B+ load so that looks ok. Thanks for the heads up.

Your welcome, The ctc 16 chassis is a good chassis and will put out a really good picture when you get her working. Here is a picture of my ctc 16 xl.
I really like the cabinet and it has a swivel base. This set had a shorted vert cent pot and it damaged the power supply. I was lucky that it did not take out the power transformer but had to replace all the can caps, B + Diodes, Power switch and the circuit breaker. The person I bought the set from HAD to plug it in and turn it on.

nice cabinet, I am going to have to make a cabinet for my the old one is still wrapped up, termites are contained (i hope) but the damage is severe.

right now I am leaning toward a simple ply box with veneers and maybe some nice thin med long legs (the kind that screw on, nice if I can find some with a brass lower half). I sure would like to reproduce something nice like yours but my wood working is limited.


what do you think about the color code problem on that one section? ever run into something like that?

Here's what my manual has for the TMA96 - hope it helps with the tuner woes.

Wow, Ed! That's a nice looking 16!

I had one similar a few years back, but the top of the cabinet was in pretty bad shape due to getting wet for a very long time. It was a remote set. I gave it to Rich since he was tinkering with rebuilding cabinets back then.
