Upgrading the VHT "WATTS" Circuit
#10
Thanks, KOC! If I went overboard, it's because I'm learning to scuba dive AND trying to cure amp cancer at the same time. The amp went into a coma again because I confused the two red wires for the OT and RT (reverb transformer...)

After almost ten years of (ab)use, I found more than a few resistors charing and flaking in there, so I think it's probably a good time to do an overhaul.

With respect to the VCK, I am planning to insert it before B+3 where it should also "clamp" voltage to B+4 and 5 downstream as well, right?
