Lee is very correct about the PS7 and a little bit of stray RF.  If you have 
any accessories on the 12 volt line (RCA jack) of the PS7, make sure that there 
is a .01uf cap across that line inside the PS7.  I believe that was a factory 
upgrade/mod fairly early in the PS7 history.

Usually this show most often on 40 meters becasue it is the peak gain of the 
original final RF brick.  If you fix it there, you then usually have a stable 
PS7.  

BTW if you are not currently using a switched AC power socket, I would 
recommend that you look into one (computer switch deck is a good solution).  
The TR7 power switch/pot combo is put under quite a bit of stress with on/off 
cycles.  I have not tried to locate a duel pot, duel switch combo, but my guess 
is that it is non-existent.

Also have your friend check his grounding.  Stray RF getting into the 
PS-7 will also shut it down.
