Al - I have no doubts that the rebuild is allowing me to hear crosstalk that
was present for a long time.  The reverb is on the right side near the
matching transformers.  I will re-locate the unit this weekend.
In spite of this problem with crosstalk, I could NOT be happier with the
Leslie since it's
been rebuilt.  A crisp and bright screamer.  I played a A-100 with stock
Leslie yesterday
at a local music store.  It reminded me of the mushy, dull sound I use to
own.  You and
Dave have always been very, very helpful and again, I thank you.
