    I will keep that in mind for future tests ! Thank you Nomad . Wished I had know about those bias resistors from the start but I am kinda new to pill stuff and learning, sooo guess I learned a hard lesson there !

    All 4 of the 1.6 ohm resistors are faulty but I am thinking they were bad from previous times before I even got it

    RCI Ranger 69ffb4 "lower output "

    Yeah, I was kinda thinking the same Nomad, one reason why I asked here was hoping someone was real familiar with that Ranger board. I do believe it is tuning issues and since I got it used I have no idea if anything was changed when it was swapped to HG's I guess I may have to undo that coax...

    Anyone happen to know the make and model of this linear????

    I finally got around to repairing it and getting er going ! I had to replace the transformers because one started smoking so I installed a couple D&A Maverick transformers they seemed to work out fine, replace the HV caps and rectifier and made a new input tune coil for it and bam, working good !

    Hi all, was wondering if anyone would happen to know what amplifier this might happen to be as I don't believe I have ever seen one before, appears to be 2- 6LQ6 driving 5-24LQ6 configuration. Has a date on the inside of the unit as 1972 . Thanks

    Kenrich eagle 200 questions

    I ended up getting this ol girls going, it was quite simple once I spent some time with it, it's a nice one ! When I got it close to done I noticed it didn't have any output and spent a little time looking over it and noticed the disc cap missing on the drive variable to the plate cap ! Hahaha
