Hello wise ones... Bought a nice 3K-A at a flea market and made one SSB contact. On the second contact it tripped off on HV overcurrent. After some debugging, the Plate choke is leaky to ground at HV
If the amp was stored in damp conditions it is possible that moisture may be the culprit. You could try baking the choke in a low oven for a good period of time (?). That would be sure to expel any m
