Hi Everybody! Most of my bits arrived to rebuild the 37-650 today! Yay! A small box of happiness from Radio Daze...

My question is this- I am planning to add a chassis mounted fuse. First, to which side of the circuit should I add this? Between the plug and the switch, or between the plug and the transformer?

Next question, what size fuse(amperage) would be best?

And one more question(I'm just full of them!): Is it all right to replace a section of solid wire with stranded of the same gauge and length? Most of it is pretty well stationary, and I don't feel the need to replace, but there are a few sections which I feel would be better served with replacement.

Any help appreciated!
Robbie
