Re: Alto L12 mixer, only 2007

I just thought of a possible way round the surface roughness.
Lay the resistive dust in place. Reaassemble the pot with the wiper at one
end and run the 3 wire fingers,of each wiper, along the track and then undo
the pot again. Then fuse the toner/graphite hopefully to something like
20Kohm and then add 1K and 20K (actual on test) resistors each side, .
Rather than 2 differing mixes of resistive dust on each track.
