Hi Alex, James and Jim (alphabethical order)

all of you three a happy new year and your Lisa's, too. They 've been altered one more year in 2002, some of them will soon become adult! Thanks for Jim's hint to look at applefritter. I tried the link, which was suggested, but the server of applefritter was broken down, I'll try later again. Hope this schematic is the one of the 1,8 A power supply; seems to me that there are schematics which are really different from the real power-supply all over the web, and nobody cares; or nobody seems to repair the 1,8 A supply!
James: In far away future, a few years, when I'm out of work, I will draw a schematic of my three identical 1,8 A supplies. Then it will be more neccessary as today, cause you will get supplies very hardly than today. And we here in europe use only the 1,8 A supplies, cause of our 230 V powerline. Alex has the right idea, perhaps is it the total disjusted pot, have to try several adjustments, not very happy to do that on a opened, flying board with high voltage in it!
James' idea with the switch on the back panel isn't the way to do, cause the problems starts later in the heart of the supply long after the switch's point to interfere, but the suggestion with the perhaps corrupted overvoltage protection is really good. I'll try and keep you on track with any news - and of course my pidgin english-slang!

Thomas
