15 yes count them.
edit: had to add 2 more to IC301 and re-flow all the pins.
so 17 jumpers total now and 1 vertical transistor and cap kit later and this poor WG4900 chassis lives again.
it took a little over 4 hours to find all the broke traces. i had to keep rocking the heat sinks that hold the vertical transistors. each time i would touch it the pic would colaps.
i was getting tired of taking it on and off the tube. but it was not going to beat me. its rock solid now and looks great.
so how many of you have taken the time to fix an unknown chassis like that. i got them it in a bulk deal some where and just had the urge to work on the WG4900 chassis with unknown problems.
i have fixed 6 in a day and a half. and still have around 10 or so WG4900's to go.
