Tom,
Thanks for the info...
about a month ago I did the upgrade. I carefully followed all his
directions, studying the photos too...mine went together fine and is
working FB.
Wish I would have had your notes first....as it was a little confusing
in places.
Mostly just not good writing, not really any errors.
73,
Lee

Subject: [Drakelist] AC-4R kit
If you're using HIS kit, one HUGE caveat.
His instructions are not very good, and he's really not in the mood to
appreciate feedback, so here ya go: Follow his instructions for
REMOVAL of
all of the components to be replaced + remove ALL old caps (you don't
need
'em - who cares what it looks like under the METAL SHIELD?...duh
NOW - install the spacers and "fit" the board - leave ALL fasteners
loose.
Take the board back out.
Now skip steps - lengthen all SECONDARY windings of the transformer
(except
for the filament - they've not been disconnected). RECONNECT all
secondary
windings to their pad points on the board. At this point most of the
confusion is ended. You need only to connect the bias wires (he said
they're white - he sent brown wire... no biggie), and the REMAINING
wires
from the output cable... small orange, small yellow, etc. After it's
all
hooked up, and you've checked your wiring - bring it up slowly on a
Variac
so IF you've messed up, you won't fry anything. Once you're happy,
tighten
up all the hardware, and put the case on.
