What an idiot I can be!!  The problem was a bad regulator.  It was so
obvious, we overlooked it.  I had one of my techs put it back together
and set it aside for later.  When another tech came in, I mentioned the
problem to him.  "Maybe you got a bad regulator," he said.  We pulled the
back & fired off the set.  Cold spray on the chip (STK730-030) brought
back the stabibity.  New chip.  Problem solved.
