Re: Is it a Bush TUG.68 ?
Good afternoon all,
Both chasses refitted into the cabinet and connected up this morning.
Removed the HT fuse No2 and applied some mains for the heater chain all started to come up but then died out after a few seconds except V5, V8 and V9 power off quick, a bit of head scratching and a revisit to the circuit diagram, ho C38 .05uf had become a dead short, red hot and dripping wax so snipped one end out of circuit.
Reapplied power and all heaters came up nicely, I them left running for five minuets.
HT fuse reinstalled and power reapplied, smoke from the droppers, lovely aroma fills the garage. After what seemed like an age a very faint and I mean faint line whistle which was like a cat being strangled five miles away, the line hold pot did alter the faint pitch of the whistle but it wasn’t enough to light the EY86 heater either and no sound from the speaker.
So the recapping of the line output will commence when the order of capacitors arrives hopefully at the end of this week.
