Hi,  I've used several Weber CopperCap SS replacements for 5Z3 (SX-28) and other Hallicrafters boat anchors to reduce the heat and strain on the power transformer.  Recently I had a CopperCap short and blow fuses.  Weber is graciously replacing it but the tech expressed concern over the "high voltages" in the vacuum tube outfits.
   My question is; have any of used anything else, constructed your own, have used Webers, or what?  Thanks.
