Friends,

I wonder what I've missed?  Came in as deck, would just click.  Jumped
right on the vertical output 7401.  Replaced it (STV9379/932212147687) 
along with burnt resistors 3488, 3491, & 3492.  Found a note that diode
6404 was changed to a 75-volt zener.  This is a late production set and
had the zener in it.  Changed it anyway.  Also changed diode 6487 and cap
2487/100 ufd, 50 v).

A month later, it came back dead again, with V/O shorted and resistor
3488 open.  This time, resistors 3491 & 3491 were OK.

Changed the whole mess again and the set is up.  Question is for how
long?  Yes, I used NAP parts and cleaned off the old heatsink grease and
applied new.  BTW, the cap and the diodes tested good.  The chip was
shorted p4 to p5--same as in the original repair.  After two hours of
testing, the heat sink measures 105F.

Your thoughts are welcome.

Regards,
