hmm,  I don't know what that IC 20 is about, but if these are the osc
outputs you are measuring,

I'd follow the 100hz signal back to the oscillator that is generating it and
take the circuitboard out and make sure that any surface mounted parts on
the bottom have not come off the CEM chip. or one of the leads is not bent
and touching another part.  my problem was that one oscillator was 3 octaves
too high than all the others.  I am not sure if it your problem, but it
might be it.

maybe double check the osc outputs at the voiceboards themselves.

hope that helps something.

Good luck

Ed
