It's been a long time getting this one fixed, but,....it finally happened ! ( Better late then never ). Back in July, during the Nesda convention in Reno; Mark Wentowski., and Al Leatherman, dropped by my shop for a brief visit. I explained the problem, and showed them what it was doing. Mark suggested changing all the e-caps in the "Vertical" ckts. Well,............He was right ! I'm not sure which one was causing the problem, cause I replaced "all" of them at the same time. The problem disappeared,....and never returned after heat testing for 3 days. Thanks to Mark, and Al, for pointing me in the right direction. Best regards to all who helped with suggestions.
