AL-80B Transformer Solution now that Ameritron is closing?


 

I have a transformer company that might be able to assist.? Does anyone know the exact spec of the Ameritron AL-80B power transformer?? ?I'm assuming secondaries are? 9VAC @ 1.5A,? ?3.53VAC @ 15A, and 1100VAC @ .6A? ?I have dug through the manuals and can't find anything specific.? You can see the voltage doubler in the schematic though.? And if 3100 No load volts is the DC target for B+?? ?Thanks!? ?Warren? (WR0S)


 

Would Ameritron forward there suppliers info?

Yes, it is a specifically designed transformer and I'm sure Tom will have the correct information on it.
