[ARC5] BC-946

[Al Klase]

Skip,

I found one generic schematic that does not have an medium-Z tap on the 
output xfmr.

M y BC-946B schematic does have the tap your looking for,  That 
transformer seems to have 6 terminals.
If it's a early set, you may be out of luck.

The schematic for T1 shows pins 3, 6, and unnumbered for the output winding.  T1 in my unit is labeled 1, 2, 3, and 5.  The neon is connected across 2 and 5.
