Re: [TCML] Mystery Powerstat info needed



Hi Steve,

I could not find anything online either and nothing either in some catalogs
that I have.

I think your guess of a lower voltage range is correct. Made for some
custom applications. I'm guessing must of had a tag fall off. I have seen
tags on some small ones, instead of better markings elsewhere on it. In the
past recently, at some Hamfests, I have seen a few odd ball variacs that
where clearly marked on the name plate being lower voltage. Bigger wire
also, if my memory is correct. Usually, all the high frequency variacs that
I have seen are much smaller, usually "color coded" so you know at a
glance, besides usual nameplate markings.

If nobody else chimes in, let me know what it puts out when and if you test
it. Kind of curious.
