Yay! - things are back in swing - all the help was great, but indirectly: while I was testing for the recommended voltages at various points, I discovered that the solder connection to the pwr transformer was bad/intermittent (at the 45VAC point, per the schematic)- I de- and re-soldered it, and twala! clean, fresh (and loud!) sound for two days, nownot too sure if this was a repair, or a repair of a repair, or if there is something else I "fixed" without realizing it, but since all the voltages around the circuit measure up to spec (i.e., within ~10%), the bias holds steady at 0VDC, and there's music(!), I'll live with it for a couple of weeks and decide whether to keep going, or just keep my hands out of further harm's way ...
thanks for the help, everyone! - my wife also sends her regards 8^)
