[Drakelist] A bit of shack cleaning - L7s, MN75s, WH7s, etc

2012-12-02 Thread jfmullens
I've decided to pare things down a bit here and am looking to sell both of my L7s, an MN75 and several of my WH7s. The amps are in great cosmetic shape, come with tubes but will require a PSU recapping. Was going to upgrade them with the Harbach boards but life gets in the way of projects.

[Drakelist] Dim DR7 readout

2008-10-07 Thread jfmullens
Greetings all, I have an R7 which exhibits an interesting problem: The digital readout is dim. Significantly dimmer than my other 7-line equipment. Readable, but dim. It doesn't matter which DR7 is installed (I have a couple of spares for test purposes). Thus, the problem would seem to lie
