Hi all, Just trying to diagnose a weak Clip L. Here's what I see; On CW, the Vp meter shows 700 volts. The transformer, when isolated, reads five ohms to the low-power tap and eight ohms across the e

700 Volts sounds awfully low. The Clipperton L used 4 x 572B tubes with a plate voltage (unloaded) of 2300-2400V in SSB and 1500-1600V in CW as was typical in the SSB/CW switching of the day. Perhap

Is it possibly running on 120 volts but wired for 240? RussKW6T Just trying to diagnose a weak Clip L. Here's what I see; On CW, the Vp meter shows 700 volts. The transformer, when isolated, reads fi

It is plausible that the previous owner has changed from a doubler to full wave rectifier. From the Clipperton L manual, the anode voltages, at idle, are 2700V for the high and 1800V for the low. If

Yeah. That's probably more plausible than the rectifier rewire theory. 73, Alek. VK6APK RussKW6T Hi all, Just trying to diagnose a weak Clip L. Here's what I see; On CW, the Vp meter shows 700 volts.

Hi all, Great responses so far, thanks. To answer some of the suggestions; the primary is wired for the correct supply voltage (120), the factory board for the rectifier/filter components appears to
