Anyone have a PS-1 from a parts rig?  Also, tips ad pointers on the 20A info would be most appreciated.  

My 100V is now just so wonderful I decided to step back in time and get a 20A which I'll be picking up in January.  "It needs work." says Brian.  Perfect.  

I fully expect to be fighting sideband suppression issues with the 20A.  It sure would be grand if I had an extra PS-1 to goof around with.   Has anyone broken the code on "adjusted at the factory" don't touch them variable caps in the PS-1?  

Incidentally, I could not get  decent the sideband suppression on the 100V until I rebuilt the PS-2.  I got my hands on a just calibrated very high precision LCR meter, a Stanford Research SR720.  None of the bridged parts were in spec which is .1%.  Some were out 4%.  This was not a project for the meek or hurried, but I did manage to get it rebuilt in spec and then was able to get  satisfactory opposite sideband suppression.  But that's a longer story ...

Can't wait to get the 20A and 458.  I even have a huff and puff kit lying around somewhere.
