[Hallicrafters] My First Boat Anchor Restoration: SX101 MkIII

[rbethman]

Pay careful attention to the MANUAL!

AC is read with a 1000 Ohm/Volt meter!  DC is read with a VTVM!

There is a BIG difference.

The B+ is 280VDC.  It will bite you worse than 120/240 VAC!  DC WILL 
cause the muscle(s) to clamp down.  If you get it in the palm, and are 
grounded, you will NOT be able to let go!

This is different than AC.
