Hi,
I have a couple of old VTVMs with some issues involving the tubes
(burned circuit boards) or power supplies. I am using the power
transformer from one donor to get a Simpson 312 running again, but that
will leave me with two inoperative VTVMs. I am going to set them up with
FET input op amps and solid state diodes to get some more life out of
them. In all of the units the metering resistance networks and switches
are still good and so are the big, mirrored meter movements. It would be
a shame to scrap them.
Just a hint.
73,
Bill KU8H
