This is a short one , so let ’ s go ! Before we continue , though , in a 1590A enclosure , compactness is key . Be sure to keep wire lengths as short as possible , and I will offer some tips here and there that slightly deviate from standard procedure .
Insert resistors and diodes , bend leads out , then solder and clip . Save the leads for later .
Use one of the leads to form the sole jumper wire , then solder it in . Insert the transistor socket , then place a flat object on top and flip the board over . Solder in the socket .
Insert the caps , bend leads outward and solder . Mind the polarity of the electrolytic caps .
