Default Ping Jim Yanik Tek 365

Hey, Jim.

Long story short my 465 quit a while back. No trace at all, even with the
beam finder. I got tired of looking at it sitting there, and decided to poke
around and see if I got lucky. Well, I found a missing -8v line which, when
jumpered in, seems to restore normal function. That line draws about 600mA.
Cannot readily access the bridge rectifier CR1569 to remove and test out of
circuit - I suspect it is (partially) open.

Is this a common problem? Seem like I'm on the right track?

Thanks!

Mark Z.
