Re: Serge SSG problem.

The 100n are simply across the power rails. For one of them to get hot, it
would have to be a component failure. If that was the case, I would also
expect it to affect other modules, as shorts on the power rails usually do.

Looking at the photo again, are you sure you have a 47pF and not a 100n just
above the TLO72?

Removing the S-L link does turn it into a Smooth. Read up on how to use the
stepped on some of the Serge sites. The thing requires an external clock
pulse to be able to do anything at all.

100n Cap next door to the CA3080 didn't burn and the 'STEPPED' section is
working finally.

continuity testing). Go figure...
