According to owner , bought it off company rep a few years ago and is export version prototype. Blew a fuse a few weeks back , runs still ,after fuse change (self heeled cap?) but excessive hum.
450V rating ps electros but I measure 488V on the HT rail and varying ac (4 to 5 volt ac measured via 1uF, 1500V polyprop), perhaps seriesed-up, but 3 in there, I've not taken apart yet. The neon lit mains switch looks more like a light bulb , runs too hot to keep your finger on, I suspect droppers for USA mains inside. No serial number on the chassis. Have yet to test the valves but I suspect probably ok, any advice on dealing with the HT/caps issue? What is the HT rail supposed to be for USA issue ones ? Any schematic for the pa / ps anywhere ?- posted
