First of all thanks for all the replies:

I have a strange problem.  Had my sb 220 in storage for 2 years and before storing it - "it worked excellent on all bands".  It no longer works on 10 meter but works fine on all the other bands?  The Band Selector looks fine nothing visibly blown ...very confused!

Because I am no Amplifier Repair tech I took my SB 220 to the shop and found the following:
1) Dirty Relays
2) Cleaning Band Selector
2) Tubes at about 1/3 Percent

Problem Solved! for $55.00 in repair, $15.00 in gasoline and $340.00 in a matched pair of Taylor 3-500Z's. 

Now I have noticed the Plate Amperes Meter is a bit sticky...maybe I will take that apart and lightly blow it off and see if the needle is touching the back plate causing it to hang......oh, by the way is there a oil or something to free up a sticky meter.
