If it melts again I will be replacing them with something better for sure. As for telling which model I have im still in the dark. Someone sent me the manual but I already had that but thanks. There is no cl1 installed on my set and on my transmit side there are the notch coupling probes and on my rx side there are the solid notch coupling loop kits.

Typical for this type operation. Replace the plastic parts with a better (non-plastic) insulator with the proper D-factor and you'd be able to rock and roll again using the same bottle. Delrin and certain grades of teflon are popular internal insulators. Relative to the same size and types of T-1500 bottles, there shouldnot be a lot of other things to go wrong inside the cavity. cheers, skipp ps: don't forget to replace any plastic SO-239 coax connectors with better quality parts. > "Phil" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I have a set of t1500 series cans that i need to know if they are 250 > watt or 60 watt.
