Last night I installed the 'loop killer' solid state relay in the final
to 
the 3/4" test loop.

That's tubing size, right? ;-)

 Hmmm - the only likely component that could cause this is the 
compression mica trimmer capacitor.
"

Interesting as I plan on ordering some high Cap mica trimmers to use
out-of-doors from Dan's. But can a check of capacity be made relative to
that commenced with? I know that's mostly good hind sight. My instincts
would lead me to now substitute the cap. Further, if the new cap works
ok, could a measure of cap. be taken so if the problem repeats a
combination of fixed micas could replace it?

I'll stay attuned on the outcome.
