   Even the folks who wrote me wanting to know where to send the $10 - I 
decided not to pound it into bits with my sledgehammer after all, so the 
$10 offer is 'withdrawn' - if this changes, I'll let y'all know.


    I'm just going in to do some point-to-point troubleshooting - I 
replaced the 50pf cap that feeds the final grids from the driver stage - 
I'm suspecting that ( a silver mica) may be failing under load, though it 
tested good on my Tel-Ohmike.


   Dang - Ameritron amp: bad tube.
          Ranger: bad transformer
          Valiant: bad repair tech



   What next????


Cheers
