Is it getting HOT. or just decides to quit. Check the voltage on the base of the output transistor to figure out which channel the problem is in. Then look at solder on that channel and also try freezing the driver transistors. Sometime a leaky driver transistor can cause this problem. kilgorq@xxxxxxxxx Quenton F.
