Repair Notes
Two of the larger resistors on the main PCB had unsecure solder joints, including the vertically mounted cement resistor in the very center. Some electrolytics on the center and right side of main board had high ESR when viewed from the rear, causing a slow upward moving 60Hz wave. Unit pictured had a mismatch with the Sam's Photofact; Q2147's emitter is listed as 330 ohm, though on the set it's 180 ohm, due to R2124 being a 180 ohm resistor instead of 330. Also Q2122's emitter had a resistance of 44k instead of the listed 11k, though the cause of the difference in resistance is not known.
