Hello,
I recently bought a CV-591A, untested. It has some really butchered wiring
on the mail power transformer, T5. For example, Pin 8 of T5 was jumpered to
Pin 14 and Pin 2 was jumpered to Pin 7. Pins 7 and 14 are the 5 Volt for the
rectifier tube (5Y3GT). There was nothing connected to Pin 2, the power
mains neutral. Very strange. I don't know how it could have worked. I have
wired it correctly and will do some testing today and try to deterime if the
transformer is good. Hopefully it is.
What I'm looking for is does anyone know of a source for knobs? I need one
of the small front panel knobs. Are they Dakware, still being made?
Thank you in advance.
Best,
DW Holtman
