Terry,

I found the WW 325 Ohm resistor to be way high and am wondering how critical this value is. I can make it to 317 Ohms with a couple of 5W resistors I have on hand. Also, how necessary are the 1000V and 1200V for two of the blocks 7625-SU and 7762-EU? I have 630V here, otherwise I'll need to place an order for these. If I need to order, I'll also get the "Y" caps PL suggested.

BTW, no "rubbing" on the chassis by me, pics show just the way it was found minus the can cap which I removed. It will be replaced when finished stuffing--for testing I installed a couple of temp 10uf filter caps under the chassis.

Thanks to all.
Best regards,
Kico
