Bruce Just a idea usually if you cant find whats wrong you have got to think what you have done. This applies with most things. ie replaced LOPTransformer etc. I wonder is the LOPT the correct one. Has the wrong one been given although the voltage is excessesivly high. Any chance of a wrong labeling on LOPT? OK on the Caps. Any chance of trying a extra Cap across the Original Tuning Cap to see if this reduces the EHT. No chance of a cracked core on LOPT?
