Hi guys, I’m in the same boat as the others posting here, I just finished assembling the PCB and the power light comes on and it appears inert otherwise. I’ve tried putting a jumper to one of the pins on the volume pot and as soon as I touch a jumper to the volume it starts buzzing, but that was the only sound I’ve gotten out of it. I had a bunch of 386 chips so I tried a different one, no resuits. I took a long hard look at all my solder joints, tried touching up a couple, no results. I have a version 3.0 board and my serial # from my sticker is zd4847. The only way I deviated from the instructions in the PDF was I put in sockets for the ICs instead of soldering them directly to the board. I think I did this and everything else correctly, not positive. Any advice?
