I thought I had heard that it was not the best thing to do over a prolonged 
period of time. I couldn't see any difference either. However I am putting the 
.8v bias on the relay driver instead and that may not be any different, if 
overriding what ever is causing the shut down is a consideration. Either way I 
still have an un-answerable problem.     Paul

All it does is ground one side of the relay to activate it, same as the
relay's drive transistor.

long enough to see if the tubes light up and they do. This may be the
answer. Paul

When the set powers up it shuts right back down. I have disconnected the B+
plug to the HOP and it still shuts down. If I disconnect L911, which
completes the primary winding on T902, it will not shut down. This seems to
me that something in the primary or secondary of T902 is where the problem
is. I have replaced all the caps and resistors in both primary and secondary
of T901&902 that were bad and some that were not bad. The 130 volts is
always there, if only for a brief moment before shut down. It seems then,
that would leave something on another board that the 901 I/C supplies. I
have checked all the sections that are supplied by I/C901. I have pulled
each plug one at time and it makes no difference in the problem. I can not
