I agree with you on the smoothness...

Unbelievable! My problem in the past was that the thing would disengage suddenly after a few minutes. But otherwise it seemed to "work". I had no idea, though, that beyond disengaging it was really not working the way it was designed to. All I wonder is what the role of the capacitors was. It would make sense that it would drop out when one capacitor is intermittent, but this totally new feel just because of a couple of capacitors still befuddles me.

Yeah - you made it easy for yourself if you have to service the box again. I am saying that hopefully I won't have to touch the thing again for the next decade.

Oh yes - the parts list was a real killer $5.something, including shipping, and buying DOUBLES (i.e. instead of two capacitors I bought four of each). I'll post a picture of the finished board with the new units tomorrow.
