Re: Alba,TC2326.G8
There's generally no need to replace the BU105/205s on a G8 unless they are definitely faulty. However you do neeed to change the green capacitors and the LOPT so your hunting isn't over.
You can short the HT out with a screw, but it's pretty obvious and ISTR it takes out the PSU fuse, not the line panel's. |

Re: Alba,TC2326.G8
Well the seller whose username is merlin on eBay just said make a decent offer for the tripler which. I did he accepted my offer and asked what else do I need . So I also need a 5 wire tripler for the Dynatron 731-733 ,chassis and he said we could come to the same deal. I have messaged 2 users on here and both say they may have the correct capacitors . I just need a Lopt heat sink compound decided some of the sleeving that goes on the pin of the BU205s which test ok. I decided to get the BU205s whilst available . I ordered the thyristor.I may currrently not need the thyristor but decided to get one whilst it can go in the spare parts tub regards David

Re: Alba,TC2326.G8
That's a sensible thing to do - you'll probably need them in the future.
As I suggested, try Donberg for the LOPT and put a wanted ad on the forum in case you haven't already. |
