The #47 would work there I suppose, but I don't see how the #47 would work for the indicator lamps. They are powered from the 28V AC winding on the filament transformer via a 150 ohm 1W resistor (R27). At 150 mA, they would be leaving over 3W in the 150 ohm resistor.? I don't have an L-7, but it uses the same transformer and relay as the L-4B, which has a 30VDC supply. Evan is the L-7 expert, perhaps he will see this and comment. 73, Garey - K4OAH Glen Allen, VA Drake 2-B, 4-B, C-Line & TR-4/C Service Supplement CDs <www.k4oah.com> jeff austin wrote: > Good day > The bulbs in the L7 are 6.3v 150ma, available from radio shack, part nr > 272-1110a item nr 47, rgds > Jeff/9y4ja > > --- On *Thu, 9/18/08, Evert Bakker (PA2KW) /<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>/* wrote: > > From: Evert Bakker (PA2KW) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: [Drakelist] Light bulbs > To: [email protected] > Date: Thursday, September 18, 2008, 2:37 PM > > Is there anyone out there who knows what voltage the indicator > light are of the L7? > > It's not mentioned in the drawings and I've dismantled my L7 for > total revision. > > Thanks in advance. > > 73's, Evert PA2KW > > _______________________________________________ > Drakelist mailing list > [email protected] > http://mailman.zerobeat.net/mailman/listinfo/drakelist > > > > _______________________________________________ Drakelist mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.zerobeat.net/mailman/listinfo/drakelist _______________________________________________ Drakelist mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.zerobeat.net/mailman/listinfo/drakelist
