Subject: [AMRadio] Transformer Lead Dress
Hello,
I just stripped out a basket case VK II transmitter for rebuilding.
Most of the transformer leads are brittle and even carefully removing
them thru the chassis hole, I can feel the rubber inner jacket breaking
up.
I would expect to replace the wires near as I can get to the windings.
The plate transformer will need good HT wire.
I have quite a bit of different sizes of silver teflon.
for most of the windings but not quite sure what to do about the HT
wires.
This is a project transmitter, not a restoration.
Suggestons? Sources of suitable wire in an affordable put up. I have
other large transformers with the same problem as well.
Thanks,
Bill, KB3DKS/1
