Title: 6 volt tap on different tranny's
Post by: pepper on March 08, 2012, 08:53:24 PM
Hey guy's,I got my new OTS FM MEM 50 watt coming soon but without the trannys, Ive been searching around and all of the other PT's seem to have a 5 volt tap as opposed to a 6volt. Will the 5 volt work,or should I run it off the heater wiring (6.3) ? I prefer to use Hammond's for this any recommendations,thanks again

If you mean using the 5 volt tap for the relay power supply, it worked for me. I used a Magnetic Components 40-18029 for my 50W FM. The relays pick up at about 8.5-9.0 volts. Using the 5 Volt tap I measured the relay coil voltage at about 11.5-12.0 Volts.

I've used them on four builds so far and am very satisfied,
