[Boatanchors] HT-32 AND HT-37 TRANNIES

[W4AWM@aol.com]

Both will last longer if you pull the rectifier filaments off and use a 
separate filament tranny to light them. One common failure in those I have 
seen is a 5V to HV winding short.

Check your line voltage.  Many of the older rigs were not designed to operate 
at the line voltages present in many homes these days. Just a few volts over 
the design paramaters can cause a lot of heat and subsequent failure, 
especuially where rigs are running for long periods of time.

If you have a bad tranny, check with Gary Brown   gkb@gwi.net.  He does a 
great rewinding job at a fraction of the cose of the commercial outfits.
