Tony,
A variac
like what you are asking for is large, somewhat lossy, and usually
expensive. Variacs tend to be a little lossy as the voltage in/out
ratio

Wonderful Idea Jim!
Thanks so much for the very astute, and experienced suggestion.
Much, better, less expense and certainly simple way to control and
prevent another {quot}Wreck of the Old 97{quot} I can simply look
long and hard down the track and open 'her' up!
Man, there is truly such a {quot}GREAT{quot} bunch of AM ops who are so
willing to keep those of us still climbing the learning curve on the
straight and narrow.
After assuming the worst Jim, I discovered with a great deal of joy, that
it was a mechanical problem. The {quot}Disk{quot} holding the
brushes, had slipped backward on the shaft, away from the Windings
therefore, the Variac was fine it was just not able to Pass 'juice'..
BOSEG Now, the {quot}Total Output Performer{quot} is back up and
Rolling out the RF at its usual rate.
Should I ever need to replace, it, your note is now a permanent part of
the 304tl folder! ! Tnx....
