All right,

I followed the Fisher recommended steps of setting the symmetry and idle (I do have the service manual).

The idle will not adjust in the left channel, although it did in the right.

And then the distortion returned...and now the idle will not adjust in the right channel either but remains at 0 volts as with the left channel.

So now I'm back to square one - distortion in both channels.

To say that I am very angry right now would be an understatement. I need this before bedtime?

I'm frankly tired of wasting my time on this D**n thing. Back on the shelf it goes...maybe for good.
