Thanks Malte and Mike for your help!

The ground cable (black) that goes to the 601a was indeed loose. Iresoldered it and presto! works like a charm again.

Thanks again for being so responsive and knowledgeable.

Time to start getting money into my PayPal account, I figure...

Mike, I will definitely want a Hawk 800-AtomaHawk kit. I think I'll beable to shell out those bucks in a month or so.

cheers

David

Without having seen the video:

Both the Master Tune and the pitch bend go through the KLM601/KLM-601a(I
recently tried to figure out what was wrong with one of my Poly's).First
thing I would look for is loose wires around the KLM-601 or the points
where it connects to the main board.

(One of my Poly's was missing the whole 601/601a board and exhibitedalso a
very weird problem that was in some ways similar to the one described by
you: no master tune, and pitch bend only in one direction; and eitherzero
or full).

If that doesn't help we'll look further.
