I found the table. The original potentiometer behaves as follows: Reading on scale Ohm 10 55 20 175 30 360 40 825 50 1200 60 1700 70 2190 80 2900 Okay, if you used a standard "audio taper" 3K pot, you would get: Full left 0 25% 189 50% 450 75% 1500 100% 3000 This looks like a slightly different taper, but probably close enough that you could get away with it by slightly altering the markings. Thanks for the suggestion to use a standard potentiometer that = approximately has the same behaviour and to paste a paper scale to = compensate for the difference. However, I will have to verify two = things: - whether potentiometers having a similar behaviour can really be easily = found You can get audio taper pots easily, which have a standard log scale. Getting antilog pots is harder. - how much power the original potentiometer was supposed to dissipate. = It may not be easier at all to find high-power carbon potentiometers=20 Now THAT may be the rub. BUT you can still get audio-taper wirewound pots for speaker level applications. They're getting harder and harder to find, though. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis." |
