Looks like they are all daisy chained to the controller into one port?

Can you break the chain into 2 or three chains? That would protect from a bad board knocking
you totally out.

Just a thought.

as an old network dude, I hate bus topology (especially daisy chain). Star is your friend.

it is not like this.
i had one tube offline at chain (unplugged due to power loss) and rest is working
one cutoff dont slice chain, just signals pass the dead tube Smiley

dont forget to reset/power on/off controller after adding/powering on tubes

One of the other people in the GB posted that his would not start until bad board's were removed
thus my assumption.
