I'll sling a 4007 under the board beefore powering up again. As my 2153 started pumping out some pulses and oscillated , at least in audible range with low Vcc, then I can assume pins 1 and 4 are not as in that Mark Bass schematic. Something else I've noticed on SMPS generally before but not thought about why. Around the elevated mains voltage area a line of slotted perforations in the pcb material. This must be more expensive to produce than a hatched wide line of white ink at the overlay stage. I cannot see ventilation or a paliative to possible developement of conductive pcb material as being the reason
