Default Hacker RP30 TR1

Hi has anyone have a photo of underneath the main board Of a Hacker TR30. The red wire close to the green one was attached via a very dry joint to the collector of TR1 but has the set seems to have been extensively 'messed' with. I am probably wrong but I am not 100% convinced it goes there? Confirmation would be much appreciated.

Regards

Kev

The collector shoud be going via the coil to the negative supply rail.

That includes the first I.F. and collector load resistor though I don't have the schematic for it.

The red wire is +HT, which should be labelled on the silk-screen, but see the pictures if in doubt...

Hope that helps,

Mark
