[TechAssist] Orion STV2750 Hot HOT

Hi all,
    I'm working on an Orion STV2750 television. Originally had a shorted HOT 
and R440 (2.7K 5w), which supplies voltage to the driver transformer, had 
increased to 3.6k ohms. Replaced with original parts, and now the set will run 
with a great picture, but after a few minutes, when I touch the heatsink that 
the HOT is mounted on it is very warm. It seems much warmer than other brands 
of TVs. I've checked the waveforms at the HOT and they are OK with no extra 
ringing or distortion. There is a regulator mounted on the other side of this 
heatsink, and I am wondering of these two parts together are causing this heat. 
Does anybody have any experience with these newer Orion TVs?
Thanks in advance,
