Hi All
It's great that we have a Fisher specific forum
I've completed the power supply rebuild on my 500C. All new or restuffed multi section electrolytics, hexfred diodes, new bias caps and rectifier, current inrush limiter, .01 1600V death caps. I brought it up slowly with my variac a few minutes ago and the 500C lives! Had her on FM and a station came in loud and clear.
Now on to the audio and mpx sections. I have enough Russian K42-Y-2 caps in .1uf and .047uf values to take care of most of the audio section. I also have Orange Drop caps to use as well. Just wondering what would be the best choice? .1 PIO for 7591 coupling only? Orange drops throughout? Thoughts and opinions appreciated from all.:thmbsp:
