[Amps] Transformer i.d.

[Sam Carpenter]

Glen:

I am pretty sure I have an electronic version. I am looking. I think in
their scheme of PS the outputs could very from 3500-3800-3900-4200-4400.
This is off the top of my head. I will send you my hard copy if need be.
These are the common voltages run on the plates of 2k 3k 5k except Ultra and
I think it had a 1214 or 1217 (same as 5k). I will advise shortly on how I
will get the manual to you.

The 3K/5K manual is not on BAMA.  There is one for the 3K/8K.  In that
manual there is a page that has several transformers.  Unfortunately, the
1028 is not listed.

It is looking like I am just going to have to "bite the bullet" and hook up
like 25.6 VAC to the secondary and then determine which of the primary
windings is which.

I downloaded all of the Henry manuals from BAMA and the 1028 transformer is
not in any of them.  Of course, I did save those manuals for further
reference.

the Transformers with models. I think yours is for the 3k Classic Console
Amp for Export, if I remember correctly. I can look when I get home tonight.
It is in the book. It is not always "Gospel" so-to-speak. Henry played fast
and loose for several years. You can find the 5k transformers in 2k and 3k
and you can find the weaker transformers in the models marked X that really
were not export. Most of those did not have the 10 meter position. But even
that is not a hard and fast rule. I think they built what the customer
wanted (refreshing). I purchased several amps over the years and none was
exactly what the manual said because what I wanted was what they wanted to
build. Lots of 8ks out there with 3k face plates.
