It is story time everybody! Let me tell you an interesting story. Was it
possible to buy from Heathkit in 1990 a tube product?

Well, I did just that. Before Heathkit announced its abandonment of kit
land, they sold off inventory at a franction of the original price. This
power supply(IP-2717A) was listed. So I bought it. What a find!. It is a
tube power supply with GE 6L6GC tubes(two)and two independent
transformers.

It was designed for the tube era - it supplies B+ and C- volts for tube
circuits. It has two meters on the front - one for voltage and one for
current.

This is a heavy unit, and it is a beauty. Imagine, building a tube
Heathkit product in 1990!! They don't design units like this anymore.

Anyone have experience with this power supply?

I will supply specs soon.
