I picked up a $25 ENI cdv700 on Ebay, I plan to convert it to a LENI.? What I learned from my last two ENI conversions - the LENI schematic shows 18k R18...? pretty sure in place of a wire wound choke original on the ENI.? The LENI instructions do not say to replace the choke.? The only way I was able to get the last two LENIs working was to replace the choke with the resistor.? I don't know why - I am not an electrical guy.? When this ENI arrives April 7,? I will give it a whirl again.? The rest of the conversion is easy... just being careful with the soldering iron and the very delicate PCB and pads - they lift if you look at them funny.? GEO ... I may order another one of your assembled Zener regulator boards - I built my last one, but it was a bit fiddly.? ?
