The Phase Linear 400 Guinea Pig

The Pig is fixed.....Both Q7 R and L were gone, both B- pico fuses, and the + rail 47uf 100 volt cap, on the left BP board...

Did you move the wire while you were in there Lee? The pig is full comp correct?
 
Yes Mr. Joe.....evidence presented herewith..

D14 was suspect, but only because i hadn't swapped out Q7L yet. No outputs wounded, even after shorting the chassis to the B- rail by way of the soldering iron before discharging the caps.....the B- rail on the left BP board upstream of the burnt pico...
 
Kev, send a closeup of the sub amp so I can see if there is anything exotic I'll need....

That's choice Bud. Does that one snicker behind your back, like this one?/
 
The Pig has this scope trace.....I'm guessing that Q7 and the pico fuse is gone...

Of course, he was the 2nd and subject to a few blowups that one week when you decided to go to the fused B- hook on the backplane..

Got to blow shit up to make it right in the end

OR

If it don't blow up, your not really testing it?
