Hi,

I'll be looking at the ratings on those power line filter parts. I 
already knew about those from some other lists. The toggle switches on 
mine are on their last legs so those are up for replacement too. I don't 
have the negative bias and it might be the transformer. The wiring in 
that area is a genuine rat's nest. I've misplaced the certification 
documents so you'll have to just take my word on that. I'm hoping to 
remove much of that rat's nest, clean it up, and get the bias voltage back.

73,

Bill  KU8H
