Story of my life-just tore place apart and can't lay hand on it.Wonderful-anyway seems like you've almost got it.I aasume TR603 is on that vert driver bd I was referring to.Is it? There's like 4 electrolytics on the bd[I raplaced mine cause I had probs w/driver bd] I cant forget that your symptom affects both channels and common areas[?] are involved andthere's all those Idle current and offset adj pots[they can go south/open up whatever so I grab my WD40 first and hit all those pots and then go for common areas that give your symptom We got 104 dagrees here today in Austin. Fire ants raising hell everywhere.Lemme know Pete Phil Bader <tjanphyl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: Thanks for the offer, Pete, will keep that in my back burner.
