Nope, it aint broke so why bother, they look just like new and there is
no sign of arcing. 

I did use Carls suggestion of changing out the VHF choke to a glitch
resistor and adding a resistor to the filament transformer to bring the
individual filament voltages to 4.8V. That just seems to be a common
sense mod for any amp. 

If I upgrade to a new rig or digital modes I'll try Rich's QSK circuit.
