Just found the main problem i think,
0.33 ohm resistor were connected to the base, So therefore that would explain the high output all over the circuit. -
Ok thanks audioguru for your help yet again,
I will try and get the mc34071 opamps,
and i will get the r7 resistor will let ye know how i get on -
Ok starting again with a fresh PCB.
All components have correct value double checked all resistors with ohm meter.
How ever i am missing 34071 Opamps. The only available opamps are 741 opamps. Is it ok to use these instead?
Also i dont have .47ohm (R7) resistos. Will it be ok to leave this out and forget about the current limiting. Is it ok to put in a piece of wire instead?
Also any more suggestions.
My problem with the last PCB was that i had it on aero board and when i first plugged it in a couple of components smoked. (R7 and U2). Can i test this circuit with a dc power supply first before i plug in the transformer, bridge rectifier.
Thanks for all your help.

Just changed the wiper on the 2 pots,
prob still there but U2 not heating up as fast
Quick question, Think R7 (0.47ohm ) is blown, disconnected it from the circuit and it is measuring 26Kohms,
dont have a replacement, is there any other resistor that i could put in.
I am measuring all my voltages with the neg lead of voltmeter at the - sign between r7 and c7 on the schematic is this correct is this ground ?

\Audioguru following reststances were taken between collector, base emmitter
collector - base 0L
Base - emmitter 0L
Collector - emitter 2.341 M Ohms -

I have checked the power transistors but i am still getting 41v at the output,
I used a single power transistor but still no joy,
How can i check if the power transistors are blown? -
Thanks audio guru i will recheck the pins of the output transistors, and ill let you know how i got on, yes it is the latest parts list + Schematic

Current limiting LED is always on,
U2 heats up as well , -
Finally connected up m ypower supply unfortunately it is not working,
Measuring from Ground, using a 29.4 volt transformer 4 A.
I am getting an input to R1 of 41V, how ever i am also getting this 41V at the output,
Measuring voltage pot, i am getting a range from 1.1V up to 10.86V.
I am reading 1.082 V across R5+R6, 0.541 across R5.
Some how the input voltage is going straight through to the output?
Has anyone got any ideas or suggestions. Email me back for further information.
I am using th PCB recieved from Red wire so that is definetly ok.
Cheers
Really need some help guys -

HI
I am currently constructing the updated version of this power supply,
I have a fwe questions about this power supply.
Q1 ; What happens when current limiting kicks in, does the output voltage drop or does it stay steady. If current limiting is then does this mean that the power supply is a constant current source rather than power supply.
Q2 ; What is the output regualation of my power supply. Input transformer is 31.6 V AC.
Also what is the rated load of this power supply.
Thanks for your time especially redwire and audioguru.

HI
Does anyone have a copy of the PCB layout please? -
Hi i have setup the up to date circuirt schematic, I am using a 31.61VAc transformer. However my U2 just went up in smoke, I have everything wired correctly as far as i know. Did anyone have similar problem, Also i think my R7 smoked too. Any one got any ideas on what maybe causing the sizzling effect.
Cheers -
Cheers for that Audio Guru.
Also just wondering for C1. I got a 6800uF 63V Cap instead of 12,000 V63V. Would this work as well or will i have to order another cap?

Fantastic news got newmc34071 yesterday and the circuit works perfectly,
Found problem in other circuit, pin 4 of U3 was 20V, 187ohms between pin 7 and 4 so chip blown,
Working perfectly now,
Thanks a million for your help everyone especially Audioguru and Redwire.
