Array Solutions may have them as well. A few months ago I got a matched pair of NOS tubes for $550. They were matched and tested by Vine in the UK. 73, Dick WC1M 4CX800 ______________________________

For reference, the original 3CX800 tubes in my 87A, which is going on 15 years old, are still producing full output (>2200W) into a dummy load on 160m-10m. If the 89 is anything like the 87A, which I

Did you see a hard fault code displayed when the amp was restarted? If not, you should dump the hard and soft fault tables using the RS-232 interface. The information there may be helpful. My guess w

You might want to consider how the plate choke got fried in the first place. I've had that problem with an LK-550ZC. It was caused by an arc from a bad tube. I believe the tube's vacuum was compromis

I have an LK-550ZC, and while I think the amps are similar, I'm not familiar with the specific differences. That said, I can offer the following: 1. The problem with the fan system is that it doesn't

Yes, and the neutral and ground must be isolated in any subpanels as well. However, there's one exception: if the subpanel is more than a certain distance from the main panel (not sure how far), such

Charles, We had some correspondence about this back in January. As you may recall, my amp had similar symptoms, though sometimes I got fault 8 or 11 instead of fault 9. I determined that one of the e

As far as I know, there was no individual manual for the ZC. I think the "400/500 Series" manual was intended to cover all the variations in both series. I don't recall exactly what set the ZC apart

Guess I have a real late one: it has the fan speed temperature sensor. The stock fan speed is too slow in low-speed mode, so the fan cycles low-high constantly. And it's like a freight train at high-

I'm with Carl on this one. Actually, the crimp N-connectors I use have center pins designed to be crimped *and* soldered -- there's a little hole in the side for soldering. I've found that there's so

I do that too. I believe I solder the braid about as well as anyone, and I use the good Amphenol silver connectors, etc., so there's no problem with the solder sticking. I said it's tricky to contro

Allow me to clarify. The joint becomes brittle, not the material. I think what happens is that the solder penetrates the entire braid, from surface to dielectric, fixing the strands in place. As the

Right, and I'm not sure there's a better alternative to using the hole. The only other way to solder the center pin is to leave a small space between the opening of the pin and the dielectric, heat
