We’ve discussed nearly fckAll regarding the CCT here.
The process of self-discovery is what remains.
The parts have been fitting together for 40 years.

If you’re having trouble seeing the end of the cct and its little socket.  Buy yourself a borescope camera.  $10 gadget for smartphone or $65 for the harbor freight tool.

Here’s a picture of an old stock cct.  To compare.

So after seeing the last pic, I adjusted the bottom of the cct to way the picture looked and it worked fine after that. Thanks to all and a special thanks to Dave for ALL his pictures
