"Gene McCalmont" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> made an utterence to the drakelist gang ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Good evening Garey and Jason; Jason, I believe Garey to be correct in this and it's something I had not noticed in the past. I have another L-4B, left at my door in a wicker basket with a note from its previous owner, which is suffering from a blown R12. I had not been into this PS as yet, but opened it up just a few moments ago. Yup... Thar she blows (no pun intended)... A wirewound "flameproof" just as Garey had said and with the same markings (best I can tell), so I believe it was original. Interesting. However, I fear that this owner was not so lucky and it looks like one or more of the carbon bleeder resistors have cooked. I am somewhat reluctant to look further into this... before Christmas!
Gary, I'm still working on my 30S-1 resolving some issues with unstable bias voltages on a 4CX1500B. I believe the fuse you referred to is almost unobtanium. Fortunately, I haven't had need of this beast! Good luck guys and keep those tubes glowing. Gene W5DDW Gene McCalmont 270 Oak Ridge Ln.
