Steve -

Yeah, they all run hot. I don't know if they are short on iron, or copper, or what. They are epoxy sealed, which I guess makes them run a little hotter. All that aside, I have yet to see one fail unless a cap shorted and someone had replaced the fuse with a piece of #000 wire.... (I've seen both.... :-) )

Thanks for the info, Garey. I was wondering the same thing a out my R-4 A. The xformer certainly is toasty, even with all new electrolytics.
