[Jukebox-list] 1 channel out on Seeburg 222(SFHA2 amp) Found the problem.

[Jjmscf at aol.com]

I learned from all my years of working on tvs that the high value resistors  
open up or change value.I figured it would be an open resistor especially when 
I  saw the 470ks.My 1960 Magnavox stereo had a channel out and it had 470k  
resistors open.I don't have your experience on jukeboxes but an electronic  
background helps with stuff like amplifiers.I'm kinda disgusted at the previous  
person's workmanship that changed the capacitors.Most they cut the leads and  
spliced the new ones in.I would have unsoldered them from the terminals and 
did  it right but for now I'm not willing to recap it all over again.Sure are a 
bunch  in these early stereo amps.At least the new resistors won't be put in 
like  that.
