I'm new to the forum, so please forgive me if I'm out of step with posting protocol.
I just completed the steps in building the PSU for the Hairball 1176 Rev D. I've been following the instructions by the book, and triple checking each step as I go.
Before moving onto the next step, I was checking the voltage readings for R87 (+30V) and CR6 (-10V) . According to the instructions, my readings should be within +/- 5% percent of these readings. The readings I'm getting are as follows.
CR6: -9.05
R87: +28.14
As you can see, I'm a bit over the allowed threshold for each. My question is... Are these readings still acceptable, being there only slightly over, or does this insinuate a problem? If this does represent an issue, any clue as to areas I should focus on?
Thanks in advance!
