It appears my thread was inappropiately hijacked but I'm still here.
I slipped the cover off the DM44 yesterday and now the issue has entered muddy waters.
Someone else has been in there with a solder iron so now it may no longer be a natural failure but may have issues induced by someone else. I checked with the guy I got it from, all he had done was some passive probing of voltage levels. I believe he may have gotten it at a hamfest....
Is there a table somewhere that indicates what I should see at each testpoint, like voltage/signal/resistance? I've just gotten into the schematics area of the manual I downloaded (the gentleman with the hard copy has not gotten back to me yet).
All those little blue, chiclet components, are those a film ceramic type? I haven't had a chance to work on anything this new for quite a long time and I have issues identifying components so far.
Comments appreciated!
Tim
