Who knows? He may get to read about the OT and the plate transformer
in the newspaper. If it's _really_ bad, we all may get to.

And as for the hundred-K-mike caps in the SB-200, well, I don't know
_what_ to say. Except, of course, that the inrush current must be 
awfully hefty if it's not a choke-input filter. #000000 wire on the
