Hi Bakis,
Thanks for the info.

This is part of what I was after - there is also a wire from the 
control board to the trigger board (it inhibits trig 1 and 2 under 
some conditions), and I was wondering if they were both part of the 
cure for some problem. However, that you say the res & cap were to 
help it with poor clock pulses raises a few questions. I wondered if 
it was for something like this, so I ran a quick simulation of that 
part of the circuit, and got the distinct impression that it actually 
made things *worse*, which made me think it was for some other 
purpose, and that if it was then hopefully the degradation of the 
clock pulse would still be acceptable! (The simulation _did_ show 
that the clock stops running at some point due to the mod, and tied 
in very closely with my measured value - around 800Hz.) I shall look 
at the circuit some more, I may be able to figure it yet!
