[Amps] Turns Counter

[k7rdx]

Max-Gain Systems offers this type of counter new and their price is lower 
than most other suppliers.Mounting requires a template to find the shaft 
centerline, but that`s really easy to figure out... They are also an 
excellent source for many other parts,tubes,vacuum variables,etc.They have 
always served me very well....Jim..K7RDX..
