It's a bastard I know.  I had intermittent (seemingly unrelated) problems
on a particular model electronic organ at one time. It was sending me batty
until I took guess and got a roll of automotive wire. Ran a seperate earth
lin efrom the chassis to the tab rail and all the problems disappered.
Yours is worse when 3055's go up in smoke.
I thought they were indestructable.

We used 3055's in a batch of 100w audio amps at one stage. (60V rails)
One clown hooked extra speakers up to it and ran it on a 2 ohm load. The
amp just kept choofing for 2 hours until the heat was sufficient to melt
the plastic insulation washers and then it shorted out and blew the fuse.
Even after all that, the 3055's were still OK !!

When Dieter lets me know the file name I will get it from TML and send you a copy.
