Re: [AMRadio] Solid State 575 mercury vapor Rectifier Replacementsneeded

I've made my own solid-state plug-in replacement rectifiers for a variety of tube types. I look up the tube specs and select solid-state diodes that stack up appropriately for current and forward and reverse voltages. I usually end up using either 1N4007s or 1N5408s. From on-lline sources

Steve, What kind of resistor do you use in this type of rectifier build to simulate the voltage drop? Jim/W5JO - Original Message - I've made my own solid-state plug-in replacement rectifiers for a variety of tube types. I look up the tube specs and select solid-state diodes

Re: [AMRadio] AMRadio Digest, Vol 69, Issue 4

You can expect somewhat higher voltage from the new stack than the original tube rectifier - if that is a problem for the rig, then add a series power resistor to simulate the internal voltage drop of the earlier tube. So far I've only needed to do that once when the new higher B+ exceeded

[AMRadio] CCA AM 1000D

Thats not a Continental Electronics product. CCA was a company that went defunct about 15 years ago. There are some AM1000D's converted to AM, request on the AM forum. John K5PRO rescued a continental am-1000d but have no documentation--can anyone help? want to put on 1885 thanks jim

Re: [AMRadio] CCA AM 1000D

CCA was sort of a bastard-son of RCA after they went out of the broadcast equipment biz. Some parts were the same, many not. Try www.ccaelectronics.com or www.goodrichenterprises.com 73 Dennis W7TFO On Sun, Oct 4, 2009 at 7:40 PM, John Lyles j...@losalamos.com wrote: Thats not a Continental
