RCA 110K2 Unexpected project
#24

Thanks Arran!

Great info!

Wires to the pushbuttons are not a big concern - as you say, there is no significant power there. The layout is really straightforward on this set, as the coils, trimmers and interlocking 6 button switch are all on a neat sub-assembly. Bare solid wires would be fine, I agree. PVC insulation is unlikely to hold up to the heat.

The 4 section cap and space available in this set provides lots of options. I note there are replacements that are quite close in values, but they approach $40 in some cases! I will most likely try and restuff, so appreciate the description of different methods. At first I was going to disconnect and wire up temporary caps just to get going, but now think it is better to simply get things right first time.

The original can does indeed have a low voltage cathode bypass, and I thought the same thing about relocating that as a separate component - especially as the 3 section replacements that are available are cheaper and a better match to the high voltage values called out on the schematic.

Today, probably more clean-up - possibly pulling the tuning cap for a proper "birthday" now that I was finally able to get the set screws loose on the cord drum.


Cheers

Ed
