converting pot to no-load: :help:
Teleologist, maybe you can help me out some more. I opened my CTS 500k pot, took a good long look at the wiper and resistor strip and terminals and how they all interact, and I can`t seem to understand how putting nail polish over the end or cutting the strip near the end would make it a no load pot. It seems like nail polish would turn it OFF, since the wiper would not be connected to the strip or the terminal, and cutting just before the end of the strip would turn it OFF anywhere below the cut line, as the `+IN` terminal would be disconnected from the strip below the cut.
Can you assure me that it WILL work the way you described, or explain to me how it works?
