I believe Dick Bryd, N4UQ still has a B&W upgrade program where he takes your #800 in on trade and then issues out a re-wound #802 choke (on old #800 ceramic cores) from his bench inventory. I used

The white wire in your electrical box should be the Neutral but you should verify that you measure approx. 115-120VAC between the white wire and either side of the 240VAC black and red wires. Finally

As an alternative, both Home Depot and Lowes will computer-match the paint on-site if you bring the panel in. I did this with a very old Alpha at one time and the resulting match was perfect. I supp

George, it should work just fine and that looks like a good substitute for the original 3CV1500A7. If you're careful, you can probably drill and tap right between a pair of the cooling fins - and ev

Nothing really, except it could be argued that it isn't quite as mechanically rigid as a bolted contact . In fact, a stainless-steel hose clamp is used on the existing 3CV1500A7 in that amp to compr

Speaking of Step-Start circuits, I recommend placing a fuse of suitable size in series with one of the step-start resistors. If the circuit "steps" but fails to "start," which results in a failure o

Looks like it will be an excellent solid-state amp. However, at ~ $5K USD, it needs to incorporate QSK as a standard feature. -Paul, W9AC _______________________________________________ Amps mailing

Unless a separate "Drive" control is accessible to the operator, it takes a dual-speed ALC loop to completely address the problem. The trick is designing ALC to respond fast enough to inhibit leadin

No current should normally flow through the ground wire except in the event of a fault condition. 120VAC current in a 240VAC configuration usually results from the manufacturer's use of 120VAC blowe
