I saw that posting. How odd. I have a similar problem with one of my
PDP-8/Ls.
A retaining nut is loose on one of the three fuse holders. IIRC, the RK05 has
an external circuit breaker, but no exernally mounted individual fuses like the
power supplies from the late 1960s. I'd suppose your problem is some kind of
loose component or connection, but I couldn't suggest where to look.
