Well, ED; the first thing you are going to find is a lot of bad solder. I have had a couple where the supply diodes in the 24v and 200v lines were completely burned up. I haven't seen many bad parts yet, just bad solder. Actually, haven't seen many of these chassis, and we sell RCA. By the way, On ANY of these that have cooling fans, The fans HAVE to run for the set to start. Got that from Tech Line Indy, before they quit talking to us.
