    Another Ebay deal on broken gear

    Just scored a Peterson Strobo-Stomp for $6.00
    Supposedly both 1/4 inch jacks were ripped out. Should be interesting to see if that's all that is wrong.

    Well it seems to work. Resoldered a few broken wires from the stomp switch to the interface board, bypassed the 1/4" jack switch, and fed it a 440hz signal from my Ebay special function generator and it fired up. Virtual strobe slowed down and stopped as I hit an accurate 440.0 and displayed A. The far left section of the LCD might be a tad wonky, but I was feeding it a noisy signal via some unsheilded wires with it disassembled.

    Now to find some 1/4" jacks to fit....

      I love feebay for stuff like that, but I have gotten plenty of junk as well.

      You really need to get it cheap. Most electronic stuff on feebay has already had the magic smoke released! (It`s soul) and can`t always be brought back to life.
