This device probably should have been tossed in the trash, but it's a challenge. That's what I tell myself.

I moved all of the grounds to a single point that's soldered into the chassis, it just feels better. I swear, tho, every wire in this thing wasn't wetted when it was soldered.

Good idea with the ground. You left a stud on the exterior? Much cleaner work means more better operation.

I placed another solder lug strip on the other side of the chassis. Wetted both the chassis and the foot for the strip and soldered it down.

I suppose I could have used the one in the picture, but it's not solderable - it's also a mount for the foot of a big capacitor (the square metal can at the top.)
