I hope it is not too gauche to write to this newsgroup about
a dumb terminal, the Z19.  I am very fond of it, but the power
circuit board gets extremely hot.  We have to resolder certain
connections periodically to keep it going.  I wonder if there
are any replacements or tips on how the scorched diodes can
be modified/enhanced to prevent this heat buildup.  Grateful
for any suggestions; the local Heath store does not want to talk
about this part.
