Budgie - Power Supply

Good evening PAC! Finished control board last weekend and working on wiring as time allows. Hope to start the bring-up coarse tomorrow. Can't wait to get this wrapped up.

Thanks Joe!

Quick update - Backplanes are done and sitting in the chassis for wire routing. Started work on Control Board. Question - The 22Ohm resistor for R37L/R and R41L/R is labelled as red-red-black-gold. The resistors in my kit are red-red-brown-gold (22.1Ohm). Is this correct?

P-clamp was used during soldering of the transistor. Shortly after that pic, it was slid back on and the old hardware was used to secure it until ready for the chassis. Super glue is a good option.

Slow progress this week due to work stuff. Backplanes ready for wiring and some chassis work. Hope to start control board tomorrow.

Jeff Beck I just hit play and let it roll with what ever came up.

Yes it is. All of there media has some kind of cool/funky stuff with it.

Yes sir, one of my fav's! Have yet to pickup a copy of Fear Inoculum (have others on CD) but it gets heavy rotation on Spotify.

Welcome! Take a look at these - https://www.sci-bay.com/product/staco-model-3pn1210-0-120-vac-12-a/ No affiliation - I bought mine from them, back when I was looking. The unit I received is better than the pictures they have posted for some.

Shadows are playing tricks in the picture. I double checked those under magnification and had my daughters check (better eyes) after explaining the end goal to them. Thank again!

Appreciate it! Maybe this pic will be better.

Thanks! The solder pad is covered and there is a slight roll (concave) up to the top of the PEM nut.

Update - not much progress since dogs were occupying garage due to weather. Ordered misc. parts and cleaned up both ends of transformer. Started backplane work today. Review from the pros - does this look good?

Welcome Roland! Full kit is the best way to go

Joe/Nando - Thanks! mlucitt - great history lesson on PL. I have read bits and pieces of that in my research of Phase Linear.

Yes, this unit did not have that nasty crap. As of now, the unit has been blown apart and the xfmr, p-straps are set aside. The heatsinks have been prepped and sit on the bench with the WO chassis. I have not melted any solder in a looooog time, so I thought I would start with the WO LED...

Appreciate it! Nav - she sure is lovely! I may have to name my current build Viv.

Was listening to ELP > Brain Salad Surgery until my daughters walked and made a request, now we are listening to Monte Montgomery > 1st and Repair
