SB 610

[Misic, George J.]

Jerry, 

Try DIGIKEY or MOUSER; they have the capacitors [recent production] at a reasonable price.  Old caps may not be in much better shape after 40 years than the ones in your SB-610; be careful with NOS caps.

Thanks to everyone that responded to my email regarding the SB 610.  I did check the output of the Xformer and it is good.  I have one cap that is shorted and two diodes that "check open".  Trying to find parts to replace the .1 @ 1200 VDC.  and a .15 capacitor at 1200 - 2000 VDC.  Any help out there in obtaining these parts.  Will offer a fair price for the Capacitors.  Or you set your own price.  Again thanks to all who responded with all the help I could not go wrong.  Only problem I did not for see was locating the high Voltage windings of the xformer.  They were tucked away in the mass of wiring located in the wire bundle.

Well that helps in my choice of rebuilding the circuit.  Will take the advice as to double the rating of the components.  Again thanks to all and 73  Jerry Rego KE7YG
