The R7000 here has developed a pretty serious intermittent problem which 
looks like a failure in the input connector, however, that is not the cause 
(I've dissected the "box", replaced the input connector, reheated all solder 
joints, etc.)... I can't further isolate the problem so I thought it might 
help to put a resistor or something across the decoupled output (top & 
mid-box connectors) to see if the intermittent is in the box or in the 
vertical part itself. Anyone tried this and if so what would be a suitable 
"dummy" load?
