OK folks, I've rechecked the voltages and here's the details. Firstly, changing the oven temperature screw was a mistake. Read a previous thread to see why I did it. It was logical given my experience with 10811 ovens. I've owned up to it and begged forgiveness from the great Flying Spaghetti Monster. It never answered so it must have made me do it. Please drop that now. :-)
When I first powered the unit up it had bad and leaking NiCd batteries and made a horrible sound. I removed those and I presume something was damaged. The "input" voltage to the 2N1701 is normal (according to the front panel meter) and is close to 26V. The "output" voltage is 25V and not 18V as the manual says. I have the manual now and anyone (with more experience than me on old fashioned power supplies) who wants to comment I am happy to email the circuit diagram and eagerly await comment!!!
