[Milsurplus] RY-5

[Rick Brashear]

My BC-610-E is talking back well before the audio level has a chance to 
produce 100% modulation.  I understand this is usually coming from the 
overload relay (RY-5) that is connected from the center tap of the power 
transformer to ground.  A fix of placing a capacitor of 100 - 200 uf @ 
something above 20 vdc has been suggested.  Has anyone on this list used 
this remedy?  I'm also curious, wouldn't it be correct to ground the 
positive side of the electrolytic and place the negative side at the 
center tap?  Any advice will be greatly appreciated as I have the back 
off of this monster and I hate to zip it up and roll her back in place 
without being more sure of the remedy.  I do not have the cover for the 
relays in that particular set, so I get the full impact of the audio 
through the relay coil.

Thanks,
Rick
