    Description

    READ FIRST BEFORE CLICKING BUY IT NOW !
    This is
    NOT AN OEM KIT.
    The parts in this kit will get your amplifier working because these electronic parts have the same function & electrical characteristics of the original equipment parts. All Capacitors are radial not Axial. Of course. Usable tubes. Functioning Relays. Some parts may be of a higher current or voltage rating than original. They will work fine. The transistors may not be the same part number. but they will work if installed correctly. E.B.C. Emitter Base Collector.
    You have to have
    TOOLS
    such as : 30 to 60 watt Iron or variable larger soldering gun. Solder ; D.paste , at least one surgical tweezer ; needle nose plier & Cheap Analog Multi-meter. Optional but good to have. Transistor checker/Capacitor tester
    A basic understanding of BJT transistors like emitter, base , collector LOCATION. The legs of the PNP or NPN transistors in the kit. How Diodes function. Signal & rectifier diodes. Anode - cathode. Capacitors - +.Relays
    You can teach yourself quickly these basics.
    DO NOT BUY THIS KIT IF YOU
    THINK IT IS "PLUG & PLAY" & DO NOT BUY IT IF YOU THINK IT IS SOMETHING Else OTHER than a Colection of PARTS to be Installed BY YOU
    Due to several requests; Here is a kit to repair/refurbish the popular
    Palomar 350Z amplifier. Due to the fact that this kit a few Diodes & transistors as well as low voltage capacitors.
    I call it a Refurb Kit.
    I'm not a Ham operator. I am a Citizen Band-er, Free Band-er  Golden Screw Driver Mud Duck.
    I'm more than a half a century old. My apologies to any Ham operators who must have AXIAL HV
    caps and felt misled by the listing.
    The schematic is easily found online. "CB Tricks"
    2X Through hole Modern fresh HV Capacitors. 120UF 450 volts RADIAL not AXIAL thru hole leads.
    3X 22uf Electrolytic 50v
    2X 47uf  25V      1X 1uf  50v       1X 1000uf    25v   4x Transistors
    4x 1N5408  In bridge rectifier configuration 3 Amp rating. You must solder
    & fallow schematic found on CB tricks Replaces original if necessary. Original is rated 1 amp.Replaces if necessary square 1 piece bridge.
    Please read the Palomar Skipper add to get an idea of how and why. Even if you are a novice.
    Soldering is easy. Just practice on junk electronics first.
    Do parts one at a time. On transistors mark EBC. Caps + & -. & remember.
    The Voltages are Lethal. Unplug Amp. Discharge High voltage Caps to ground.
