latest project realistic model STA-240 receiver
#2

Hello guys,
I wish I would took photos of before the chassis was covered in 1/8 of pure dust ,


Far as the two main filter capacitors the original ones were rated at 8000ufd at 50 volts .
I bought two Nichicon rated at 8200ufd at 50 volts I wanted to get some better ones but 30 mm diameter was limit since they were so close because when I tested the new ones in place with the set at idle the B-plus and B-minus rails measured like 47 volts DC .
One thing I wish I could find is a schematic but being offered one year makes it tough .

Sincerely Richard
P.S. this set lives in a workshop !
