[Milsurplus] GO-9 question

[howard holden]

And yes Ken, you're right, the supply was 800HZ, 120VAC for both the TBW and the GO-9. The  The supply had various values of switched capacitors to match the dynamotor, which I believe was a PE-103A or a PE-3 for the GO, just not sure of the designator. For the TBW it was a gas powered 800HZ 120VAC.  The TBW was normally supplied in 3 water-tight cases, the GO is not, each section connects to the others.

 Just build a 600 volt supply for the existing tube and call it done.

As I remember it, the original supply was driven by 800 Hz.
