Re: SR-400 T3 disk caps
Thanks Jim, That confirms what I learned today. When I got it out and disassembled, I found that only one of the pair was corroded. The one that appeared to be good measured 92pf. The bad one measured

Don't confuse receivers intended to receive MF marine frequencies with those which could operate? from the mains current avaliable on ships,, namely 110 VDC.? Many receivers adapted to receive

Correction: the S-77 is AC/DC of the S-40B .? The socket is to run the receiver from batteries.? I did not look at the schematic to see how it's arranged.? On the AC only version the filaments are

Re: general question re polarized ac plugs on receivers as shipped originally
Back in the time frame of 1974-75 power tools for CA had to have polarized plug plus double insulated. Most US brands made the switch instead of running 2 production lines. One thing that drives me

Re: S-40B - What is the socket on the back for?
Interesting. The S-52 and the S-77. They were the Acey'Deucy versions of the S-40 and S-40B. Regarding the 2 prong ac plug looking accessory socket on the rear panel, my S-40B has it but no schematic,

Re: S-40B - What is the socket on the back for?
Well, so the plot thickens. I have an S-40B here under the bench for eventual restoration and pulled it out and had a closer look. Attached is a photo of where the power cord enters and the covered-up

Re: general question re polarized ac plugs on receivers as shipped originally
I am old enough to remember. Few? homes had polarized sockets when these receivers were new.?The 0.01 uF capacitor was to bypass RF on the incoming power. Goes from the unswitched side of the line

Re: general question re polarized ac plugs on receivers as shipped originally
David I am up north of 49 where things are similar, but not the exact same. I believe we had, and required 3 prong polarized outlets before 1955, but only for Outside, Garages, Laundry.... so the

Re: general question re polarized ac plugs on receivers as shipped originally
Sometime around 1972-1973 before 3 prong outlets were required by the NEC. Working on old houses with 2 prong outlet never recall seeing a polarized outlet. David
