I can vouch for that! My first transmitter's power amp was fed 500 volts. All I had in the junk box was a pair 450 volt capacitors, so I figured it would have suffienct of a margin of error built in. It worked for about six months, then one cap went bang - blew the bottom out and released a LOT of smoke. Needless to say, I wasn't able to complete that conversation (CW, 80 meters). -- OK Don KD5NRO 2001 ML320 1992 300D 2.5T 1990 300D 2.5T 1997 Plymouth Grand Voyager _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
