Ok, I got it up on Variac 120VAC, AC current apron. 200mA. Vcc reads 97.5Vdc.
No TO3's installed yet. Poked around w/chop stick..all seems fine. No arc/ overcurrent.
With my limited SS experience...I notice on the output (no load) a DC element comes and goes...in other words the zero line on the scope will drop 1 or 2 volts the back to zero...30-40 secs or so later it may do it again or rise 1 or 2 volts...
The Vcc (Fluke 87) shows no change at 97.5Vdc when this happens..
Is this normal? I know dc on the output is fatal, so I'm leery of installing the output xsistors if this is still unstable.
