Hi David,

I looks like the gate before TP3 gets a signal from off the PCB, how clean is 
that?  

first I would put a .1u to .22u small ceramic cap between power and ground of 
403 then I would look at where TP3 signal goes to, does it feed off the PCB to 
anywhere else? a ring below ground means an inductive kick. HCT is even faster, 
so it might give a bigger kick?
