Re: Got my Electar 30!

"So with the 336vac from the PT (no load) and a FWB it works out to about 350vdc?"

Correct, However I put 100R series resistance between the trannie and diode bridge (2 resistors total).

quote:
"The power supply uses a 500ohm/5 watt resistor between the plates and the screens and there are no screen grid resistors."

I used 1k/5w between plates and screen and I used 1k/5w screen resistors.

quote:
"For cathode bias there is a 130ohm/5 watt resistor bypassed with a 47uF/50v cap."

I used a 22uf bypass cap

quote:
"The grid resistors are 47k and it looks like the "bias" resistors going to ground are 470k (Peavey uses 220k resistors)"

I used 1.5k and 240k.

Mike D.
