the set was really cool just now.
powered up and played like nothings wrong.
inside 3minutes it all goes south.
something is getting warm and distorting the whole signal
none of my yellow replacement caps are hot to the touch
the 40ohmR gets really hot,, my temp substitute / test 50ohm 10 watt one does as well.

Renovated Radios do carry what you need.
As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM |
