   Is this a rotor reflector or an amp reflector? Maybe we should move on
with amp related stuff and let the ebay stuff stay on ebay.

Bruce,

You are digging your self into a hole, you need to quit digging !
You clearly didnt mention off the factory price in your message.
A mistake was made but lets move on, no big deal.
We know now what you intended to say.

intended to say was $200 off of the new price.  Unfortunately, what you
actually wrote was completely different!

Something different & something to show how much I don't understand.

I'm trying to understand something  about transformers. What the heck
is the rosetta stone for their nomenclature?

In specific; I learned the original single hole alpha 77DX
transformer came with a "2.4 KVA CCS" rating. The two hole 77SX
transformer came with a "4.4 KVA CCS" rated transformer.

OK, so looking at the Dahl specs I see their A77S transformer (one I
used to have) to be "2800 VAC @ 1.2A CCS". The next higher voltage
one in the catalog is a A77S-3 which is rated at "3000 VAC at 1.05
CCS"

For the discussion, the Dahl filled in a lot of air space the
original transformer left available. There wasn't much room in the
enclosure once that transformer was seated.

I always thought the KVA came from V x I so if that's the way it is,
I'm interpreting my old transformer to be 3360 KVA CCS and the other
Dahl to be 3060 VAC CCS. If that's the case the Dahls have less
cojones than the stock transformers but I know that's not the case,
the Dahl was definitely a better performer than the stock transformer
was.

This isn't making sense to me.

Gary,
KA1J

It was about 10 years ago, but I needed some spare parts for my RC5B3 and 
Create sent them to me from Japan for just the price of the shipping.? Try 
them.

If not, I know that UKW-Berichte in Germany are Create stockists and they're 
usually very helpful.? Maybe also try Wimo in Germany and Ron GW3YDX at Vine 
Antennas in Wales.

But see what you can get direct from Create in Japan

cheers
