[AMRadio] plate transformer ID question

2003-06-29 Thread Patrick Jankowiak
List, Here is a transformer identification challenge.. I have a decent size plate transformer I'd like to identify. Maybe someone can tell me what big iron it is from. I was told it was from an old AM transmitter of the 1940's. (unknown tubes, power, etc). I am trying to determine the power

Sure don't know, sounds a lot like the plate transformer from a BC-610 except it would be for 2000 and 2500 volts DC not AC center tapped as you indicate. The size and weight are correct for the BC 610 however. Power wise this is your everyday 2000 watt all day unit or better. That's as wild as I

Sounds like a BC-610 Plate XFMR to me as well. Choke input filtering and a pair of 866s or 3B28s and you got 2000 or 2500 VDC under load, depending on the primary selection. I was just looking at one this morning. It was lying on the floor of the shack because I'm too lazy to move it to a more

[AMRadio] Schematic Needed

Hi Fellow AM'ers; I am restoring / modifying a Gonset G50 six meter transceiver. I have the schematic, and documentation from the Bama ftp sight. The schematic there is of poor quality, and reading component values is next to impossible. Does anyone have a quality print of this

52CO46 that is the Stancor part # for the plate transformer for the BC-610E. The voltage figures are for the DC output voltage under full load, using a full wave ct rectifier circuit with choke input filter. The voltage selection is accomplished by selecting the appropriate tap on the 110v

Hello Jim: I cant scan a schematic for you but can copy mine and send it via post. Let me know if you have not received one yet. My modulation on the G-50 has been described as excellent using a D-104 microphone. The ones I have heard sound good too, but not many lows. The receiver
