[Milsurplus] Need help with ME-26B/U

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

Bob,

The -12 (and presumably -35) was replaced by TM 11-6625-200-15 and covers 
both operation and maintenance of the A through D models.  I don't have it 
scanned because I have three originals.  However, one of the originals is 
available for $23.90 plus shipping.

I haven't looked at the schematic (the manuals are in boxes in the attic) 
but I presume it's for B+.  Use any 1KV/1A silicon bridge.  The 1A rating is 
overkill but finding anything in silicon rated less than that may not be 
easy and will probably cost more.  Pick it based on which of several types of 
packages will be the most convenient to mount and wire.

Robert
