Hi Greg,

I just sold my SB-102 and the manual ----------- therefore I can't give you
the exact details.  But, I had a similar problem.  Measure the voltage(s) on
the audio output tube.  Look for out of tolerance readings on the screen (I
think).  Anyway, it turned out to be a 1/2watt resistor that had changed values
drastically.  Replaced it and audio was back to normal.  Best to check all
voltages per the instruction manual.  You will often find some out of tolerance
caused by both resistors and some caps that just didn't survive old age.

Gud luck
