[R-390] T603 transformer

[Barry Scott]

Thanks, Don, for that suggestion.  I've been running the LINE OUT from
time to time - primarily on the lower output ranges - but will put a
load on it to prevent possible damage from running it without one.

Thanks,

Most of us use the local audio for our speaker and the line audio is usually open. With the volume of the line audio up there is no load on that output transformer. To combat this, I put a 600 ohm resistor across the line output on the back of the radio. This gives the line audio a load and saves the transformer.  (The resistor is actually 560 ohms 2W)
