I repaired this set on 3/18/04, and it came back yesterday. I replaced the HOT with a 2SD1880, and replaced the STR30130. These have failed again. I don't have the schematic but looking at the schematic fot the DS27580 I see a 2SD1879 called for. Same thing on a DS31650. Will the 2SD1880 NOT work for the 1879, or have I missed a cap or something? TIA Walter ===== Walter Wood Future Tech Home Center 2786 Hwy. 43 N.
