Default Re: Restore a Beau Decca

That's an interesting point about whether the fuse would blow in the event of a short, I personally think it would, although I could well be wrong. I've had a fault with that type of rectifier where the two anodes have shorted together and taken the transformer out. Unfortunately, no fuse of any rating in that particular position would have protected against that particular fault.

I've actually got the early version of that Dynatron amplifier and it hasn't got the fuse fitted. I keep meaning to fit the 500mA fuse modification, but never seem to get round to it.
