Re: [TenTec] power switch for Tentec 961 power supply

[Bwana Bob <wb2vuf@verizon.net>]

Yes, I had to solder a jumper wire across the power switch terminals in 
my Corsair when the switch burned out.  I'd like to find a replacement 
some day. The power switch in the  Century 22 is prone to the same failure.
Did Ten-Tec use linear or audio taper in their audio gain pots?
