Default Repair for Vortexion super 50 watt

I'm hoping someone can look at my vortexion as I'm having a few problems with it. After posting on the forum it may appear that the 807s are oscillating. The voltage readings I'm getting are very high but have been advised if oscillating you'll get unusual readings on your meter. There's also a hum coming through the speaker and recently on ad hoc basis some static. I've tested as far as my knowledge will allow but am now stuck on this one. I also have the schematic. Quite happy to travel if need be as the units too bulky to post.

Thanks Chris

I am happy to fault find and repair it for you but I am a long way away, in South Dorset.
If you have no luck with a nearer repair service, I will sort it out for you but will need sight of the schematic as the 807 version is slightly different to the EL34 version, that I am familiiar with.

I also do this kind of work but I'm probably even further away (Northumberland).
