[TowerTalk] Running 3-500Z in horizontal position

[Steven Katz]

I'd turn it upside down, not on its side.

I'm working on restoring a SB-220 and need to have the amp on the side in order to get access for measurements.

Would I damage the 3-500Zs running them in a horizontal position for a short while testing and troubleshooting the amp? Sagging filament, causing short, etc. Specs says vertical, base down or up! Thanks!
