Well, if its a standard 20A circuit, it can't pull 2800. It would be 400 over the limit.

Doh! I thought this was Uni's- I didn't see the eBay link. The seller has it configured for 240v AC. It has a NEMA 6-20 plug installed in photos. That requires a 20A 240v circuit.

240V service these days is fairly uncommon, without one requesting such.

My house is a mess. 100A service, 15 amp circuits from the 70's. Needs to all be ripped out and throw away.

yeah guess hams that run amps like to have 240 volt outlets,  the amps's run more efficient and cooler at 220/230/240,

Nice article.

Wonder which parts they actually replaced on failing Analog boards though.
