Falcon may be long gone but fixing an amplifier is fairly straight-forward. Hey Bruce, may I bribe you for a copy of the circuit diagram please? I'll pay for it and buy you a hot dog and soda at the next De Anza (or Livermore) Swap Meet... hint, hint. cheers, skipp [email protected] skipp025 at yahoo.com > cruising7...@... wrote: > Eric > I believe this unit is a Falcon 8252 220 Mhz power amp, > 10 watts in, 100 watts out, continuous duty. > Production date was around 1989.
