That is correct Ian. Right again. In essence, Q2 "samples" the emitter current on the darlington pair. Yes. I failed to mention that the R20 sample point also routes over to the multi-meter circuit

By comparison, my PA70-V uses the same darlington EBS circuit to the cathode, but Q2 does not exist as this was a feature "enhancement" in the PA-77 which later replaced the PA70 series. Instead, a 1

A conventional relay adds c. 15mS delay. My assumption - based on 8877 autopsies - is that this delay may be problematic because gold-sputtering occasionally happens. In my experience, fast fuses se

The break time of a fuse depends crucially on the size of the overload. Remember that a fuse operates in a very simple way, by heating up a piece of very thin wire until it melts. For the fastest bre

Rich Measures suggests (or has suggested) using resistors to replace electronic systems, rather than using fuses. Fuses are bad enough. I can't imagine anyone depending on a conventional resistor to

I would check the valve for gold sputtering, Clive. To do this you need a high-pot. tester. The grid is common. The anode is hot. Apply pos. 8kV. If the leakage is above 10mA you may have a problem.
