Gibsonian's Cherry Pl 700 Ser I, soon to be a PLWO-1000

[laatsch55]

I was known as DR. Gonzo in college. Probably due to the shoebox full of pure white mescaline I showed up with!
Are you sure there are no fenders in the woodpile somewhere??

Dr. Mindbender does have a ring to it.

Cathy has no shorts, opens or any other details in her chassis which will cause problems. Installed all drivers and outputs last night and pulled , prodded, bumped, thumped, rolled and shook it and no intermittent tendency came out, so were putting another board together and trying it again.

 

[mlucitt]

Hopefully, you shook the gremlin loose...

 

[laatsch55]

Jeez, I hope so Mark, this one started out so well ,too.

 

[Gibsonian]

How you finish is what is most important!

 

[laatsch55]

Amen Scott, we'll finish strong!!. About got the board populated. Will be testing tomorrow night. I'm ready for some 1000 watt ruckus in the mancave. The 50's are nice, but not at Mach 8.

 

[laatsch55]

Getting there.

 

[laatsch55]

Finished with the board. Gotta work tomorrow, but not late.

 

[mlucitt]

Those 470 caps stand up pretty tall, don't they. I just finished another board but I can't test it because my PL 700B is in pieces while I get the DC protect board sorted out. Did you say there was a bench tester schematic or procedure? I have a DC power supply but it only goes to 28 VDC. Please tell me I need a new +100 VDC power supply, I'm looking for things to put under the tree.

[laatsch55]

You need at least 75 for the nfront end to stabilise. Joe has designed a board tester, he was gonna send us a schematic. Probably ought to remind him.
Sutton has a friend that wants a 400, I don't have time,do you?? I can send it straight to ya. PM him a price would ya? Also, do you want a 400? I have 5 left.

 

[mlucitt]

I should have a 400 if for no other reason than for a test mule like Joe has. That would be my 75V power supply. Do you have a 400 with an attitude?

Mark

 

[speakerman1]

I feel 400 years old and I have an attitude does that count. LOL J/K

Mark

Oh yeah, plenty of attitude.

Larry

Can ya generate 80 volts DC +,-??

 

[speakerman1]

Depends on how much is put to me. With the right amount I'm sure I can hit 80 volts. LOL I may die from it; but I can do it.

Larry

 

[laatsch55]

80 volts won't kill ya, well.........it shouldn't anyway.

 

[speakerman1]

Straight to the heart me throw you into defib.

Larry

 

[laatsch55]

Then it's time for some Shpongle in the mancave at Mach 8.

 

[mlucitt]

I have no liquid assets right now (but plenty of parts). Let me know the damage for one of your shelf queen 400s and I'll start collecting aluminum cans, or something.

Mark

 

[laatsch55]

Don't sweat that Mark. 150.00 for the hammered faceplate one will do.

 

[mlucitt]

The term "hammered" is being kind to the aluminum, more like "rolled of the back of the one-ton."
