Q601 & Q602 shorted, fuse F602 and R647 (2.2 ohms) open. Replaced all listed parts and brought up on variac. Picture folded in middle and pulled in on sides. The regs (Q601/Q602) run very hot quickly. Shut it down. Q613 & D622 are good. Tried another set of regs (2SC4664) with no change in symptom. What am I missing? This is the second time I have seen this. Didn't fix the first one.
