This is due to minute differences in the circuit board trace dimensions and a residue of flux on the board. If this should occur, remove L-6 and clean all traces of carbon and flux from the circuit board. Resolder the edges of the traces and remove any flux left from soldering. Modify L-6 so that it will stand off the pc board. Reinstall L-6 and check for rated output. A slight retuning of TC-4 may be required.
