OK, I think it is some glitch in the scope, but I am not sure since I don't
know these things very well.
I am using only one channel, although my scope does have chop and alternate,
I am firmly in one channel.
I removed the 10uf caps from the end of the supply and the chop went away..
for a little while, I accidentally nudged the calibration pot that is on the
knob of volts/div and it came back, I moved it back to where it was but the
gaps continued. this is why I think it is something with my (very old) scope
then I switched channels and there were no gaps.
thus my dillemma,
which channel is right?
I seem to feel that the problem is not in the circuit at this point.
Harry, No I am not sure I want to connect the mains ground to 0V, it just
feels dangerous to me, (especially so after you just said about it!) I said
about it in case it had some bearing on this problem.
Oh and this doesn't show up when the probe tip is grounded or with the
scope's test signal.
i have a 5x sweep switch, and it was off at the time of the 3ms observation.
I guess it in't something to worry too much about,
my filter and LFO seem to run very well on it, I think it just means that my
VCO's have some other problem ;(
thanks for everything guys, If I find anything else out I'll report back.
