It sounds like what you have is a Harris edge wound coil with pinch rollers. These are often found in phasors and ATUs. When they have been set in one contact point for decades, freeing them up and returning them to new condition usually requires they be completely disassembled and cleaned up, (Tarn-X) and put back together with some dielectric grease on moving parts. Nothing on the coil-roller contact surface. When reassembling take care to get the pinch roller to grip with the right amount of force. 73 Rob K5UJ _______________________________________________ Amps mailing list Amps@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/amps |
