[Hallicrafters] HT-37 Questions - REDUCE HEAT IN THE TRANSFORMER

[Bill Gerhold]

How about some more info about this site.  I went there and I haven't a
clue how
to cross reference the current tube in the HT-37 with their offerings.

I have tried the Weber Copper Cap tm solid state rectifier tube
replacement. They can be found at www.webervst.com. These are not just
diodes, but are complete replacement for standard rectifier tubes, that
mimic the tube's slow start properties, and operating properties, but
have no draw on the filament line in the transformer. I have been using
them in my Hallis and like them. I have no connection with the company,
mileage may vary, etc. Certainly helps the overloaded transformer to run
cooler.
