Thanks for that Jon. I've just ordered some replacement caps, and I hope I'll get it fixed in a few days when they arrive. If anyone has any more ideas, please...
I've fixed it. It seems that the TIA chip was faulty. I swapped it with another chip from a non-working VCS, and now all is fine and sounding great. Thanks to...
... Awesome! No problem with the misspelling, I'm just glad that you fixed it. Nice work. "Chips" are listed near the end of my debugging list, so it doesn't ...
