- Hi All, We have 3 Ameritron AL-82's at our local club station. The station was recently moved into a new shack which is wired with one phase of a 3 phase 208 VAC service (the old shack was setup for

- Why not hook it up that way, and use a good AC voltmeter to measure the filament voltage at one of the tube sockets? Is the xfmr in the AL-82 common to both HV and filament (as it is in the AL-80B)?

- The only way to properly set the transformer taps is to measure the filament voltage at the tube pins at each setting. I would start with the 220 volt tap first. If the voltage is within specs, you a

- AC measurement is certainly a bit tricky. I use an old Ballantine Labs AC VTVM from the 1950's, seems to be the only think I own that has any accuracy on the AC range.... WB2WIK/6 "Each success only
