Murphy V200a - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

Hello All,
I decided to get to work on my V200a after a break. A few weeks ago I changed all the caps, and apart from the dreaded 'service engineer' who had twiddled all the tuning slugs, God knows why, I had a reasonable but mis-aligned picture.

After being on for half an hour there was a hiss and a bang and smoke poured out of the LOPT!!!

Has anyone got a good LOPT available so that I can start again. If you have a scapped set, an IF strip (untouched) would also be of great help.

Best wishes,
Peter.
