Thanks, Powell.  So we have another leak to fight.  We are going to 
postpone work on SB1 & 2 until we get SB3 & 4 working.  Both the latter 
currently have temperature sensing problems.

Connected leak detector and confirmed that there is a leak, located somewhere in the capsule area.  I was unable to remove the preamp cover for further isolation, and given the stories I’ve heard about rust and goo in the others, felt that it was worth a visual inspection anyway.
