[Amps] L4-B Power Supply

[dcoffman at iquest.net]

Tom,

I did mine by soldering a butt connector to the lead and then soldering a 
brass solid wire ( Used in the hobby shops as well as the welding industry) in 
the other end.  I then bent them at the correct angle to match the existing 
holes.  I did not want to modify any more parts then necessary.  I also 
soldered new bleeder resistors across the new brass leads.  There is a very 
good web page on the internet describing this method.  I don't have it at 
hand, however a google search should bring it up.
