While I am in the unit replacing 3 carbon comp resistors an 3 caps. I am
thinking about replacing the tube rectifiers with silicon to reduce the
heat in the unit.
Adding zeiners to compensate for the increased voltage. Looking at the
schematic looks as though the unregulated DC has a bunch of AC riding on
top which may be required to perform an accurate tube test. Would
adding the zeiners degrade or change the functionality, performance of
the unit if the measured DC values were met?
-> insert response <-
Have made multiple DC voltage measurements around the rectifiers to
benchmark the existing potentials. Used a 30Kohm volt meter.
Thanks
Hutch
