The internal fuse in the Viking II is in line with the low and high voltage transformer primaries and protects both. As stated before, there is no prorection for the antenna relay socket unless the original fused line plug is used. This is not a good idea and it should be replaced as you said, with internal fuses. If wired correctly, only one additional fuse would be needed to protect both sides of the line and the lead to the relay socket should be moved ahead of the fuse to protect that outlet.
73, John, W4AWM << I replaced the single internal fuseholder with a double one and used the second holder for a single fuse in the hot side of the line only and replaced the line cord with a 3 conductor and "3 prong prang". >> ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com. ______________________________________________________________ AMRadio mailing list List Rules (must read!): http://w5ami.net/amradiofaq.html List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Partner Website: http://www.amfone.net Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.html Post: mailto:AMRadio@mailman.qth.net To unsubscribe, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body.
