Rich hasn't mentioned the good meter protection info on his web site:
<http://somis.org/D-amplifiers2.html> topic "Glitch Protection" and this
diagram: <http://somis.org/D_a_02.GIF>.
No use having a good meter staring you in the face that is doing nothing ;)

A SB-220 amplifier will work just a well with a 0-ohm jumper in place of
R3 and it would tune up the same. . . Or, we sell 0.82-ohm 2w MF
resistors for 20¢. However, the condition that caused the HV+ arc to
ground - which occasionally causes R3 to blow probably should be addressed
-- unless of course you have a free supply of 3-500Zs and Heath 200uA
meter movements.

"I would like to get a .82 ohm resister put back in but may test the amp

jumper. They are mighty scarce around here as are other values. The only
thing we have in this area are Radioshacks"
If all you have is Radio Shack, 12 x 10 ohm 1/2 watt resistors in parallel
would be .83 ohms. That would be within the normal tolerance of resistors
and still be pretty small.
