Nov. 15th, 2018 09:21 amI need more problems to solve! I'm excited about getting together with Lisa this weekend because, among other things, I'm going to pick up a receiver and turntable that I recall both having some problems. I was just looking at my photos of all my notes on the VTVM I repaired and thinking about how thoroughly engaging and fulfilling the process was.
I've actually been a bit depressed about the VTVM because I have lost two of the control knobs from the front. I took them off for disassembly and have misplaced them. I still keep hoping they'll turn up, but it's made me feel like I have let the VTVM itself down in losing some of its parts that have been around longer than I have.
But life happens, and I am going to try to accept this and buy new knobs and start using it as a tool. If not for me buying it on Ebay and fixing it, the whole thing might be in a landfill somewhere and I should be proud of that.
