Hi all - Progress report:
The Ameritron box itself was OK. I had some of my own circuitry in
there to autoswitch the relays w/my FT-1000. Two of the 5 1N914s were
shorted and caused the 1A fuse to blow. Since I now use a Top Ten
Deivce box, instead, I just removed the diodes and the RCS-8V works
just fine. So, the shack comes out totally unscathed (that's what's
important, isn't it?)
Heat pump-A/C unit blew a xfmr, now fixed. Garage door opener only
had to be reset by unplugging it. Onwards...
