If you smelled something, I would pull out the regulator board that is along side the RF power tube cage and inspect it for damage.? The other one to look at would be the board underneath that has high voltage parts, diodes and bias supply parts.?

I will check it if I can, or just order a new one and see what happens.? Anything else I could easily check.? I thought if the tube heaters didn't go on it would indicate a power supply failure and if they did it would indicate a problem elsewhere.? I did smell something briefly and then nothing.? I looke everywhere I could carefully and saw no indicators of a burn. |
