Thanks for all the suggestions. The supply on the Omni Vi right now is
a model for the old Omni.
It was working OK, in spite of its current limits. Now, I get a voltage
drop any where from 11.3 V
with 25 w out to 10.5 v with the drive advanced to full power.
I see 5v. of AC on the DC output on 20K Ohm VOM all the time. Is this
enough to mean a bad cap?
I am going to hook the rig up to the little MFJ 22 Amp bare bones
switcher, and see how that
goes. If a problem, I have the circuit breaker that went with the early
rigs for Mobile or battery
use. It should take it up to 75-80 watts.
Does anyone have a copy of the circuit for a 962 power supply? TT does
not have it on their
site. I have the one for the old ps I'm using right now.
Thanks for the help.
BTW, I'm kinda hurried because our club is having a special events
station next Sat. Sept 7.
I'll post more here about that by the weekend.
