swan 1500z

[Ronald Porter]

Does anyone know the wiring of a swan 1500z relay? I got it at a hamfest, there is a 10uh choke going from ground to the relay,but is not hooked up to it,doesn't look like it was ever hooked to any pin on the relay, just hanging there. Does anyone know what pin it would hook to? trying to get this amp to work. thank you, Ron

Could that choke be L5 a 1 uH choke as shown in the diagram, at the output of the Pi network.

Yes, thank you , I found it after looking further. He had it wired wrong for 110 volts. had to rewire it to get it to light the tubes and the meter light. then put a foot pedal switch on it to key it for transmit. Because it was keyed through the radio circuit. His radio did not have the separate circuit for this amp. Works great now. Thank you for all the help, Ron
