Greetings;
I am "demodding" an SB220 purchased by a friend sight unseen. I have
almost completed removing the mods and have started installing several
of the mods recommended by WA2SQQ.
One remaining issue if the reconnection of the filament transformer. The
secondary wiring code is per the schematic as is the color code (red)
for the bias winding. The problem is the primary: Only 2 black wires
instead of the windings for 120/240.
I assume therefore that the filament transformer actually, in this
version, connects to one phase, 120 volts, along with the blower motor.
Can someone out there verify this before I (literally) perform a smoke test.
Any other suggestions will be appreciated.
TIA!
Dave, W5WP
