I was just going to sit down and start an email saying all was good and 
that the new fuses did the trick . I thought better of the idea and 
figured I would test the amp out first So I hit the on button and waited 
for the red light to go out indicating that the tubes were warm .  I hit 
the operate standby switch to operate  put the multi switch to E-plate 
looking for current and there was none 5 seconds went by with no power 
applied to the amp from the exciter and Poof smoke coming out of the 
stacks .  Looks like it will be going back to the mother ship for some 
repair . At least I have two new tubes waiting in the wings .  thanks 
for all the comments and help .  John Molenda kb2huk
