 I have a PS-7 that is putting out 27 volts! Anyone have an
 idea what could be bad? The MNA3500 tests good.

 I wanted to tell all who had suggestions all at the same
 time. The problem has been solved. When I removed the board
 to look at the 1723 chip I noticed that the 4 pin connector
 was not connected properly to the 3 pins on the transistor
 that is heat-sinked to the bottom. When I reinstalled it
 correctly 13.8 is the output. Thanks to all who responded
 you made me look harder.

 I have a 2-B that I bought from well-known collector Sindre
 Torp, LA6OP.
 It has the EU-standard plug on the power cord.
 I need an original plug - the US standard - if anyone has
 one for sale.
 
 Thanks in advance and 73 de Jim - AD6CW

 Hello all,
 
 I have a TR4 that has an open AF gain pot.  So far I
 have not been able to
 find one.  From what I can learn, it appears that this
 AF/RF gain pot
 assembly was used from the TR3 to the end of TR4(c)(cw)
 production.
 
 Any chance someone has one of these or knows where I can
 obtain one?

 Ron -
 
 These are hard to find.  They show up on eBay every
 once in a while, but draw big bids.
 
 Some have had success in purchasing a 500k audio pot by CTS,
 disassembling and replacing the 
 element in the original switch.
 
 The same configuration was used throughout the TR-3/4(any)
 production.
 
 You might want to repost your want on the DrakeRadio Yahoo
 group.   MUCH larger audience.
