Fred, > When you say you are getting 9.5V 'across' D6 do you mean you are measuring > voltage actually across the diode itself, or is one end of your probe at 0V? You should > only be getting approx 0.7V 'across' D6 if it is forward biased. i.e. if the anode is more > positive than the cathode (cathode's the stripey end). Have you checked that D6 is in > the right way round? 9.5V across D6 sounds as if it's reversed biased, which would > be why there's bugger all getting to the regulator. gotta go with andy on this, the diode is in backwards.
