3 WOPL's in the pipeline (+1)

Good to see some one experiment...

thats really cool and out of the box thinking I like it. this hybrid wopl you speak of will be a beast I am shure.

Lee, do you remember what Joe said about the 700B meters? I thought he said they were 200ua full scale DC. I'm going to dick around with the meters I just bought (Jewell model 75TB and thats what they are).

 

[laatsch55]

That was a long time ago Perey, I couldnt say ..

Yeah, he could tell me this morning, and I would have forgotten already

 

[laatsch55]

Yep.....

1000uA full scale. Some of the more modern meters have moved to a 650uA full scale standard.

Joe, can anything be done to the meter to be able to use it (a resistor??)?

 

[Geegz]

Do the 400 meters have the same movement and scale? I know the swing is reverse, ratted out 400’s are pretty abundant

Do you have different meters Perry? Clear this up for me. The resistor in series with the meter tunes the sensitivity. You can make any sensitivity meter work by fiddling with the series resistor values.

Yeah Joe, different meters I'm playing with. They are 200ua FS. I'd like to try some series resistors to bring them in line with the amp output.

 

[Gepetto]

Start with 5X the normal 1.8K (9.1K) and 22K (110K) resistors then Perry. It should get you in the ballpark and you can fine tune thereafter.

Joe, are you talking about replacing the resistors on the Light board or just installing that size Inside the meter?.

 

[WOPL Sniffer]

I really don't care how accurate they are. Meters are eye candy and good for nothing else but keeping the stoners busy.

 

[WOPL Sniffer]

Of course, I'm not knocking the stoners. I was known to partake about every other hour back in the day. Now? I don't need help with sleeping OR eating chocolate chip cookies.

HUH?

Roger that.... Thanks Joe

The last 2 of the 4 are nearing completion. I have been milking these long enough. I should have them completed this week (even though Jeff's will be sitting on the shelf for a while).

Decided to putz with the face plate assembly today. Here is a shot of it freshly cut out.

After scrubbing the beer/nicotine/slober off and out of everything, she's near ready to roll.
