Hello to the Collins reflector,
I have a Collins 32S3 in daily use but have  problems I was unable to track
down so far. First of all, about once a week, the power supply fuse blows
when I switch the power on. I am using the recommended 4 Amp fast blow
fuses. No problems at full output while transmitting or tuning the
transmitter. Somehow the inrush current is taking its toll on the fuse. What
is the remedy other than a current inrush limiter? What is the probable
cause?
Second, there is no 6.3 Volt output at the rear RCA connector to illuminate
the meter in the 31B-4 console. No voltage at the wire harness exit. My eyes
are not good enough any more to trace the color coding. Where does the 6.3 V
enter the harness? Does anybody know? I doubt an open wire in the harness.
Thanks in advance!
73,
Peter, NH6VB.
