A litany of dumbassery

Ok, episode two of my 8038 audio generator build. It powers up and oscillates, but I cannot get it to go above 350 Hz or so, and if I plug in a fine adjust pot it goes really weird, so there’s definitely some dumbassery going on here. Will update this thread when I’ve figured out what exactly :upside_down_face:

EDIT: Found it. The connectors were mislabeled, so I was trying to dial in the full frequency range with the fine adjustment (kind of obvious in hindsight :clown_face:). There is still some weirdness near the lower end, but that’s for another day.
