Thanks for the information Wayne. I just noticed that Q4161 gets quite
hot after just a minute, so I have a short somewhere off this
transistor, now just to find it. I'll let you know what I find. I may
have a few more questions before this is all over.

Hi David:

The on/off command comes from the micro, U3101p18.
U3101 pins:

18 on/off
31-32 crystal
33 reset low
40 data
41 clock
42 5v

The reset pin, 33, is feed by the 12v supply true zener cr3101 with 
r3116 2400 ohms to ground.
The 12 V supply is sourced by transformer T4601, diodes cr4601-4. 
Q4161c connects to cr4603/4 cathodes and is 22v.  Q4161e is the 12V 
standby source, which also feeds q4160, the 5V standby reg.  Q4160e 
being the 5v supply.

It has been a long time since I have seen one of these, so this is from 
memory.  Looking down at the component side of the board with the tuner 
on your left.  Towards the left hand side look for a diode that in 
standby has voltage on the anode but not on the cathode, if so, change
it.
