Re: new jtm 45 trouble
1) Is your bias circuit grounded?
2) Check the ground on your output socket
3) That PT would normally have a 150k or 180k resistor before the diode
Oh and your bias caps are back to front!!

Re: new jtm 45 trouble
bais caps were in backwards.... bias current correct now.... B+ now 422
