Ah-ha... it looks like I can adapt one of the inexpensive 1.75" (45mm) square panels meters into the SB-230 very nicely. But I don't have any more of them. Anyone have a 1 ma FS meter of this type? They were sold under names like Calrad, Argonne, Lafayette, etc sometimes just said JAPAN on them.

I suspect they are still made new as well... but don't see a source online yet.

I didn't break the meter, honest.  It was like that when I bought the
amp.  See...The power supply isn't even finished yet!

What you going to use the amp for Steve?


If it turns out to be stable and reliable, I believe it will become the
first linear amp to ever stay-put on my operating desk.  It should be
handy for both AM and SSB.  The other desktop amps I've played with
didn't impress me enough to be kept on the desk - they move to the
shelf the same day.


Once it is working OK 80-10m, I'll see if I can add 160m.  The Russian
tube should be a good conversation topic.

If the amp-rebuilder is good, see, really good...  he can barrel that
GI-7B down in there so low...  Fryin' chickens in the barnyard!!
