    I hope I didn't offend you LAB3. I have a lot of respect for your travels. I want to help people and possibly someone will take this technical information to the next level someday.

      Not at all! Don't sweat it brother.

      I identify as a man but according to the label on a package of Stauffers Baked Lasagne I'm actually a family of four!

        Finally got around to putting this unit back together and testing it. Made sure to add a little heat sink compound to transfer the heat generated by those giant transistors. This will ensure long life. The JIS screws hold the heat sink to the metal strip inside the case. I pulled the lid off of the drain/breather hole and will glue that back on. I was curious to see what was inside.

          Soldered and then removed the flux residue. Solder connections should be shiny chrome. Any chalky, dull looking solder is cold and will crack with the vibrations of the environment. However, the real threat is too much heat, too much pressure with the iron. The traces can be damaged very easily.
