[ARC5] BC453 on 24V - screen voltage

[Robert Eleazer]

"In my experiments, I came to the conclusion that the overall best lower voltage for our receivers was around 170 VDC, with the screen voltage at the same point."

The interesting thing about that finding is that you get about 170VDC if you take 120VAC out of the wall socket and run it through a full wave bridge and some filter caps.  Today I finished modifying the power supply board from a discarded flat screen TV.  It provides 164VDC as well as 11.8VDC at least 3 amps.  I am sending it to a friend of mine to power a BC-348 I gave him a couple of years ago.
