not the main filter, its only 47/100v   however  I've traced it back to the
regulator area, so your on the right track,  must be a regulator problem,
I've got a slug of those stk regs in stock,  I'll change it out and check
this area for bad diodes, heat,  Q' etc.  and let you know,  this set has
several  power supply, judging from all the heat sink'd regulators,  not
sure how to tell if the regulators are bad without just replacing them,
unless blown up or obvious shorted legs,  ( what a mess to undress this
one )  I'll hit it tomorrow morning,  have service calls all day today.
