[sdiy] CMOS clock problem

[mark verbos]

Hi,

I have a high frequency clock made out of a couple 4001 gates in my  
quantizer module. It doesn't like to start clocking when I turn it  
on. Then I touch the pins with the scope probe and it starts going. I  
tried adding a 2.2M resistor to ground on the pin where the cap  
connects and I got it to start if I plug the connector in while the  
cabinet is powered up, but if I power cycle it while plugged in it's  
not oscillating. Is this something to do with the order that the  
power rails are coming up? It's only using +15 and GND, so I don't  
see how it could.

Any ideas? I'm lost.
