Hey all,
I recently finished building my Duocast, and the circuit. works fine outside and even inside the enclosure, but there's definitely something wrong with the input and output jacks, because it only works if the jacks are not attached to the enclosure. As soon as I get them through their respective holes, it stops working. If I move them around inside the holes, I get signal sometimes (I assume when they're not touching the enclosure). So it seems the wiring itself is correct because I get signal when the jacks aren't attached. The enclosure doesn't have any paint on the inside, but I filed around the jack holes anyway to make sure. I also used the exact same jacks (Lumberg) in my Paragon build without any issues.
Here are some pics:
Looks like I have some short/grounding issue, but I couldn't identify it myself. I know searched through older threads and saw most folks who had similar issues were using metal DC jacks, which isn't my case here.
Any thoughts?
Thank you!
