Default Astron Power Supply problem

I've got a problem with my Astron RS-20 power supply. With no load,
it's fine, but anything above 4amps or so makes it drop way down and my
rig drops out of lock. I haven't measured it under load but the rig
works ok to 10 or 11 volts so it must be dropping below that.

I found a schematic and downloaded it, all the voltages are fairly close
to what it says on the schematic with no load, I haven't made any
measurements with a load on it. I'll pick up a headlight tomorrow to
put a load on it and make more measurements.

Does anybody have any ideas?

Thanks,
Kerry, WD5ABC
