wrangler,

Your last 2 regulators are referenced from:

R19 / R28 then a RC including R21 / C37 provides a slow turn-on
So you'll have to change R28...

You have to be sure the voltage on Q7/Q8 is 20 to 30 volts higher, about
330/340 volts if not ...

To do so measure the voltage at the connection of R19/R21.

R19 + R28= 1.5 MOhms current = 340 V/ 1.5M = 0.226 mA
Voltage ref = 0.226 mA * 1MOhms = 226 Volts
New value = 305 Volts ==> i= 0.309mA ==>
R19 = 100 KOhms ======> That changes the output voltage on both Q7/Q8

Then if you want to change only the output voltage on Q7
you have to put a voltage divider with 100K / 1M Ohms and a RC just before R25.

Alain.
