Power On With No Speaker?
#4

Hi Pepperoni long time no post!

I'd say generally the answer is no it is not a good idea. You can't do any voltage measurements because there is little or no load on the power supply and as Mike mentioned the only place you'll from any HV is near the 84 tube no where else. This can cause #61 to short from exceeding it's maximum voltage rating. It starts with a hiss then PPPPPOOOOOWWWWWW!!!!
Good to hear from you.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!

If you have rust between the vanes, I wonder how you get the NJ in between, and how you then wipe it off.morzh — 12:02 PM

If the noise is still there, the OPT might just be OK. Or so we hope.morzh — 12:01 PM

You would probably be replacing the OPT.RodB — 10:54 AM

Thanks guys. I think I'll give the Naval Jelly a try since I can better control where it goes.dconant — 09:23 AM

Just forget this number, it is useless anyway. Simply proceed with your project.morzh — 10:08 PM
