Default Re: RGD RP231 Revisited

Hello all,

I disconnected the secondary motor winding from the input side of the rectifier so there's no power to the amp at all.

The winding gets so hot the binding tape around it starts to make a bubbling noise. Somewhat alarming!

Certainly an alternative power supply could be rigged up if the present arrangement is beyond help.
