Thanks Russ I have the schematic I went to the St.Louis library and copied it off a Sam?s. It?s been playing fine for about 15 hours now with the diodes lifted. Hell I?m going to leave it that way. Must be some extra quality that Zenith put in before the name went on. You could be right about the diodes being leaky, we change that cap even thou it ERS?d good and it didn?t help.
