Re: Replacing Electrolytics in a 465/465B


 

Hi Victor,

I'm asking $8 each (shipping included) for one board for U.S. destinations. Since shipping would be calculated separately for overseas, the boards would be $5 each. Do you have a shipping carrier preference? Looking at USPS, the prices are rather high to France but I ma be looking at the wrong options.

Thanks,
Barry - N4BUQ

Hello Barry,


Nice job and clean solution congrats. I have 2 x 465B and one 465 that need
to be recap soon. I would love to get 3 boards. What is the price for them.
Also I live in France did you accept international shipping? Also the
related cost.


Please let me know.


Have a nice day.


Victor

Recently, I had a problem with the LV supplies in my 465B. Thinking it was a
shorted electrolytic can, I decided to replace all of them (although it
turned out to be a shorted tantalum but had already pulled the cans before
finding the real problem).

I decided to design a small PC board on which to mount modern snap-in caps.
THe board mounts with standoffs in the exising larger holes that are left
when the cans are removed and allow replacement of the snap-ins if/when they
fail and that can be done without further soldering on the original board.

Pictures of the board and the process are in the following album:

If anyone is interested, I have extra boards for sale.
