Re: HT-37 transformer failure due to rapid STBY-->OFF-->STBY
HaldenYou can't have it both ways, either you are measuring a reactance with a 90 degree phase difference between E&I or you are measuring a resistance with E&I in phase.? A reactance does not behave

SX-117 AVC pumping
A rainy day here and thought I'd dig into the SX-117 again and investigate the AVC pumping situation that's been discussed in the past.? For those not familiar with the problem, the symptom is that

Halden good that you are still testing, here is how I see the images.
The second one seems to show turn on at voltage negative peak, very small fast transient in voltage when switch closes. no

Re: HT-37 transformer failure due to rapid STBY-->OFF-->STBY
Here's an interpretation of the surge according to the theory that it represents the transformer core reaching saturation.
In image #49, which shows the strong surge, one can see that the current

Re: HT-37 transformer failure due to rapid STBY-->OFF-->STBY
Hi Jim,
All conditions are the same in the third image (#58) except that the previous time the unit was turned off, the last cycle had negative polarity as shown in image #56, below.? Per the

HaldenThe second o'scope image is exactly what I would expect to see from an SSR switch at turn on.? At the voltage zero crossing, the current is always at a maximum with voltage leading the current

Re: Riders Manuals
When I started collecting in 1975, I spent as much time tracking down Rider's manuals as I did searching for radios. This was long before the 'Net, so hard-copy manuals were essential.?

That would be more convenient than the paper set I have :). I think 14 is
the volume with most of the ham gear.

This image shows the profile of primary current starting with a peak a little more than 4 A and decaying over about 4 seconds to about 1.6A as the filaments warm up.? In this

Another update...
I hauled by HT-37 to the dual-trace storage scope and inserted a 0.5 ohm resistor into the neutral side of the power supply.? Here's a little bit about what I found.
When the surges

Re: Halicrafters SX17 transformer
Joe,
Yes it was. The primary on the original had failed open. A Stancor A-4723 was also suggested by Jim Whartenby, but I found that difficult to source in the UK. It was possible to obtain from the
