Problem with amp section on a rci 2990..Losing dead key works like a modulator..Keys about 1/2 a watt swings to 175 watts..Problem is NOT in the variable or the main board..Anyone seen this before?
 

Does it have an NPC mod? That's what it sounds like.
Usually a diode and small resistor over by the regulator.
Not that i am aware of but that regulator is getting Hot when keyed the one on the amp board..No mods and it was working up until a week or so ago and it started doing this
