If you'd take the time to read the thread before making a knee-jerk
response, you'd note that I dealt with that in an immediate follow-up to

I'm not in the 'nonsense' business concerning electronics -- having made
it my profession for over 40 years.

Do you make "gut" decisions when trouble-shooting, and just swap
suspected parts, or do you thoroughly examine the symptoms first? The
first, we used to call "tube caddies" in the old TV days. The latter, we
called "technicians".
