Re: V2000 - Bad to Worse.

:-( I think I see what I did. I think I accidentally shorted Q708 with
the HV cage. That was dumb. OK I've burned out R101 by doing that - what
else is likely to have been toasted? Q708 presumable? Anything else
because the other resistor continued to get red hot even after I removed
the short circuit.
