I've had a recent failure with my Centurion... was operating it about 600
watts out, when I heard a "TICK" noise (sounded mechanical, not electrical)
and noted that output power dropped. Plate voltage was still normal, but no
indicated plate current).
I happened to look into the grill on the top and the PA plates were red.
Turned everything off, then back on a day later, at first all was well,
then the same thing happened again ...amp was normal, then output power
dropped to exciter levels, and the plates began getting hot
Ideas?
