Post by: Martin.M on March 17, 2013, 02:40:17 pm

hello friends,

I have restorated the second triple nickel.
Have fun to see some pictures from this glowing wonder,

Plugged with 2 dual trace plugins CA there are 117 tubes glowing, eating 1kW.
This scope have a scope mobile and external PSU.
I have worked like in the old time, with an tube voltmeter + HV probe.

greetings from germany
Martin
