Locate the LM78L12 voltage regulator.
DO NOT GET IT CONFUSED WITH THE
79L12 REGULATOR!!
Solder it into U2.
Locate the LM79L12 voltage regulator. Solder it into U3. Save the LED for later.
Apply a small bit of solder to the via holes. These are the small pads that allow
traces to “change sides” of the pc board. DO NOT SOLDER PADS FOR THE
REMAINING COMPONENTS!! As an example, if you look at the mounting hole by
J1, you will see 3 via holes around it.
Solder the 2 3-pin header strips into JP2 and JP3. Remove the blue shunts and
DON’T LOSE THEM!
PART #5: FINAL BOARD WASH & INSPECTION
Verify all the parts are in the correct locations. Make sure all of the ICs are pointing
the same direction. Make sure the 3 TO-92 parts (transistor/voltage regulators) are
facing the same direction.
Inspect the solder joints. Any solder shorts? Too much solder? Missing joints?
Wash the board under warm water. Scrub gently. Dry.
THIS IS A GOOD STOPPING PLACE TO REST OR PUT THE KIT AWAY UNTIL
LATER.
You are now finished with the Organic flux solder. All soldering past this point is
using the No-Clean solder. You do not have to wash the board anymore.
PART #6: FINISHING THE PCB
You will now solder in the remaining parts on the pcb in preparation for wiring to the front
panel. USE THE NO-CLEAN SOLDER. BE CAREFUL!
Locate the Spectrol pots. They mount into VR1-VR4. Be sure they are flat and
sticking out perpendicular to the pc board.
Locate the 3 pieces of RG-174 black coax cable. Again, note that one end has
longer wires stripped than the other. The short ends will go in the pc board in
locations J2, J3 and J4. Look at the pc board. Notice that in the coax positions, there
is a large hole pad (lower pad) and a smaller pad (top hole). The braided wire is
soldered into the larger hole. The smaller, inner conductor goes in the top hole. BE
SURE THE
SHORTER
BRAIDED END GOES INTO THE PC BOARD.
