Can you check the DC voltage between 34 and 36?

260.5 VDC between  34 & 36

OK, you can put the resistor back at 31.  If the fuse blows for some reason after you do this, please post lots of photos of the area around terminal 31.

Final VDC readings at 33-31: 260 VDC +/-.  Passed! OK, what did you and I learn from going through the successive tests and detaching reattaching the resistors?  That the problem was in my soldering?   Thanks very much for your patience and perserverence.  OK to continue building the kit now?
