What electronics have YOU fixed lately?

Fixed a boneheaded screw up today. 8 volt regulator in a radio I just finished recapping appeared to have gone bad, very hot no 8 volts. Replaced it and condition persisted. Started looking around what was fed by the 8 volt regulator and found where I had replaced a cap but failed to clip the leads for whatever reason. Positive lead touching ground.

Well, duh, no wonder it wasn't working.

Clip, clip, good radio.
