Subject: out of tune polaris

so i finally replaced all the s+h caps- all 6 sets.... but still its
out of tune and isolating voices 5 and 6 show that they are raspier
than the normal scratch sound as heard in 1-4... i had trouble
soldering 5 and 6 and worked on them longer than the others. and i
wonder if lets say i over heated those caps .. did i screw them up?
I did damage the trace just a bit on one The little copper ring came
off the hole, but I cleaned the lacquer off back a bit and made sure
the solder flowed to cover to it and got a good continuity. I think i
had one bad voice before, now i have 2 i guess ....I have
no 'scope' ..so do i need to order a few more caps and try again? or
could it be something else.. (It wasnt really hard to do the soldering
after i did the first couple. but i started with 5 and 6 and
possibly messed it up)
