Did you see Ken's possible mod for some 4516 chips on his page? If
you're not clocking, that may well be the fix.
The only diodes I added were between the Gate Outputs and the On/Off
switches. They're off-board. You can see them on the pic on the site
(which I still need to link to the file so you can see it bigger). I'll
try to get to a wiring diagram this week too.
