[Heathkit] problem wit a HW-32a going into oscillation.

[Chuck Penson]

Make sure you have the HP-23 power supply set to 250 volts, not 300. These things do not like to run at the higher voltage setting.

The manual suggests replacing the c-121 ,so I did that ,same problem. the bias will set correctly and the rig shows output when keyed. the oscillation continues with the two finals removed and the driver. anybody point me in the right direction, before I start readings of the system voltages ,point by point,per the manual.
