![]() Presume you mean an RCA signal generator type WA-44C. If all you get on the output connector is 120 Hz hum, that points to a bad electrolytic capacitor in the power supply. Look for large tubular capacitors with ratings like 10uF or 20uF 250V connected to the rectifiers. If you put a digital multimeter across them, you should only read a fraction of a volt on the a.c. volt scale, and maybe 150V on the d.c. volt scale. If you read a high a.c. volt value, the capacitor has dried out, and no longer works. They are easy to replace. 73, Ed Knobloch Crescendo wrote: I have an old WA-44C and I was going to use it for one of my science projects. The problem is that when I connected my speaker coil to the line frequency connectors and tried to change the frequency and such, nothing changed. I tried every knob on it and nothing change at all, the only thing that worked was the line frequency power output allowing me to only increase the volume. I was hoping that some of you might know how i might be able to fix this. If you are able to please help me. Thank you. |
