Re: 5F8-A Adjustable Bias MOD 6550
I email Mercury magnetic for more detail on the PT.
Yes, i should take a basse schematic of a bass amp, the thing is I didn't find a Layout.
Ian, the screen resistors seem's ok at 1K 5W... you mention 2K ?, never see that before... Why ?
And Yes, 4 x 6550 gonna be use

5F8-A Adjustable Bias MOD 6550
Hey !
I plan mod the 5F8-A tu use 6550
The fix bias resistor 56k going to be replace by a trim pot 25K
But, to use the 6550 tube, i plan to use a 47K in line with the pot...
Question, ; to get the 70% ( or more ), is the 47 are ok ??? Higher or lower ?
Thanks
