I have had a few folks contact me about the carrier meter amp PCBs I
made for my 390A restoration. The remaining units quickly sold, so I had
an additional run of the boards made, and am still offering them at $20
per board, plus $5 shipping in US.
This is a 1.5" diameter round PCB which allows a standard high
resistance meter to work and achieve proper deflection with the
unusually low impedance requirement of the 390 meter bridge circuit. It
uses an operational amplifier as a current sense amplifier, with a 18
ohm shunt resistor to duplicate the original meter resistance. Requires
2 additional wires to power the amplifier, connected to the AC heater
supply and ground. Board comes completely assembled and tested, you
supply the meter (practically any low range DC
milliammeter/microammeter), and you will need to select and install a
calibration resistor for it. Installation instructions and schematic
included.
