Rocket Question

Post by S.Marshall »

Hey guys,

Came across Jovana while info hunting. Can anyone tell me what the two extra screws are between the transformers?

They are for two of the four rectifier board stanchions.

Being tube rectified, I didn't think the rocket had a second board. Is there a layout or pics that show that? I haven't seen that board.

Thanks for the info.

Oh yeah I had a brain fart.

In that area there could be a dual turret strip for the filament usually closer to the power tubes or a wire strap.

I don't know. No gut shot either sorry.

Isn't it Jovana the rocket that Ken left incompleted and finished by JM as an "experiment"? Where did you get the pics? I heard that the power supply was the only thing that JM wired.

I know I always voice amps without any power attached.
Signatures have a 255 character limit that I could abuse, but I am not Cecil B. DeMille.

Well, it is a lot safer. But of course, your ears have to be really sensitive to free electrons.
