Does anyone knows the pros and cons of replacing the 2 5R4 and one 5U4 on the Heatkit TX-1 or the HX-10 with a home made replacement as described by K6MAY in the following link http://www.k6may.com/CollinsTip2.shtml??? I just ordered the parts from Mouser Electronics and would like to have a second opinion from de Heathkiters................Pat PS it seems to me that just the heat elimination and power load on the power transformer filament portion is a plus.
