Opened this can of worms back up after setting it aside for awhile. I had become quite frustrated with the whole thing. I'm in a somewhat better frame of mind now after the break.
Checked all my capacitor orientations and they are good.
Got out my magnifying glass and started looking at wires, solder joints, traces, etc. Found a bridged solder joint associated with the high filter switch, so that issue should be resolved. I'll know when I put it back together.
Still have the pop in the loudness and monitor switches to deal with. I thought I'd replace transistors on the tone boards since I've got it opened up again. But I've seen different opinions on this. Some say the transistors are pretty hardy and to leave them alone. Any thoughts on replacing the transistors on both the tone boards?
