Jim, Which two transistors and two resistors have failed before? In the P.S. ciruit? The more information we have the better we can all help.

The set seems to work ok but the regulator IC, STR51041 seems very hot. The case temp gets up about 70 c after 30 minutes or so, that's about 158 f. The data sheet shows the max operating temp as 125 c or 257 f. Well within specs but still pretty hot. It has failed twice along with two transistors and two resistors. Capacitors have been checked and/or replaced also. ************************************************** Jim Myers Since 1972 Telrad Electronic Services Co.
