Thanks to all trying to help.

Bob,

The linear is new to me but I have bought used from a
guy in the States. I received it yesterday in three
boxes: one for the RF deck, one for the power supply
and one for the transformer.

I have connected the transformer using the three
connectors. I think there is no way to make a mistake
because the three connectors are different.

I have 220 V here. I don't know what is a regular plug
for you. The power supply came without a plug. I
installed a standard one (2 hot pins and another for
the ground)

What I think is important is that the house circuit
braker blows when inserting the plug in to the power
line with the on/off switch to off. This will discard
deffective tubes?

The guy who sold me the Titan said it was mint and
working. 

Yes I have a manual but not very useful to solve my
problem.

Do you think it is a good idea to contact Tentec
support on Monday?

Any help will be very appreciated.


Marcel
