RE: Will do!

Charles
That is very a strong possibility and that probably changed loading of the input sources.Another thing you want to do if you haven't already is get yourself a can of Deoxit D5 and spray inside the pin holes of the tube sockets and then pull each tube in and out a few times to get it worked in..You had quite a bit of oxidation and I got a lot of it off but there is still some on there I couldn't get off and that is why it is good to clean those sockets every three months.It takes about 5 or 10min to do it all and it should be done to most every six months to guarantee best performance..You probably have something in your office that will work very nicely like denatured alcohol..Just draw it up in a 20 or 22 gauge syringe 3 ML and squirt it in each pin hole of the sockets.
