Well OK then.  I must have had a hitch in my memory.  Saw the SS 
rectifiers on Nick's page and the
block diagram looked about, if not the same.

I'll see how it goes.

Thanks to all who responded.  Glad to see the list still works!

The 200V is built on a monolithic chassis. I have a 100V and it is particularly convenient to separate the power supply chassis, which I did, to update caps, rectifiers,  etc. But other design updates in the 200V may make it desirable.
