Re: Brenell Purchases
Repeated all the main DC and AC voltage measurements using two DVM's and two Model 8 Mk. 3 Avo's.
The two DVMs gave as good as identical results.
One of the Avo's gave almost the same results, in fact on the higher voltages the AVO read a few volts higher.
The other AVO gave somewhat lower results, a few results are:-
+HT - DVM 333V, Avo 320V
EL 84 Screen Grid - DVM 291V, Avo 280V
EL 84 Cathode - DVM 9.63V, Avo 9.5V
EZ 80 anode to anode - DVM 616V, Avo 580V
Have no idea of the calibration accuracy of the 2 Avo's, obviously the one that read a little higher than the DVMs is suspect. Where possible changing the Avo voltage range to a higher or lower range generally gave the same results for the same voltage.
