I produce a line of nice quality, inexpensive chassis for tube projects.
I've just added a new design that includes a flat deck chassis w/ countersink hardware, and some glass replacement PCBs for the Harman-Kardon Citation II amplifier. I'll be adding more stuff and info as time permits. Check out www.yaegeraudio.com Thanks! Jon Yaeger |

Hi Jon,
Nice kits. Are there any plans to produce tube-type (or perhaps hybrid) UHF-FM transceivers for 70cm (440 MHz) or all-tube shortwave communications receivers? Or perhaps replacement knobs, meters and panels for well-known vintage receivers (communications)? I'd be interested. C.W.

Now if you had some of the Citation II OPTs, you would be good to go.

The Cit ii is a good amp, but if you have to tear one down to get the
transformers, building seems pointless. The boards are to refurb the old ones, I surmise, but my point is, perhaps you should kit out the Citation II. OTOH were I to kit out an amp, I'd pointwire it. |

The boards are to refurb the old ones, I surmise, but my point is, perhaps you should kit out the Citation II. *** I don't know if you've had the chance to work on many Citation IIs, but it's not uncommon to find them with very toasty looking PCBs and failed coupling or bypass caps. For those who are experienced enough to redesign the interior for point-to-point, I say more power to them! But I think those folks are a very small minority. *** The glass PCB has some extra ground plane surfaces that reduce noise compared to the stock PCB. It ain't for everyone, for sure. *** Maybe some day I'll offer a kit. The stuff I have are just misc. things of interest to a small number of folks. OTOH were I to kit out an amp, I'd pointwire it. I couldn't agree more. |

For the record- I am NOT advocating removing the boards and pointwiring Citation IIs or any other _desirable_ vintage amp. Usually the chassis of PCB amps aren't suited to rewiring, at least from the standpoint of accessibility. But if you want to be able to tinker, learn, improve, fix pointwiring is a necessity. |
