Help with Heath SB200
 

I have a Heath SB200 that has been modified a bit too much.
Someone replaced the stock fan with a muffin fan and they
cut a big hole for the fan in the RF chamber.

I want to replace the muffin fan with a fan resembling the
stock fan. Grainger sells motor and fan blades for appliances
that look close enough. I just need some data to choose the
right one. Most import is the fan blade size. Second would
be any specs for the motor. Stock motors range from 1/500Hp
to 1/20 HP. I suspect one of the smallers one based on physical
size.

Also the meter seems to stick in a couple spots. I don't
see anything obvious like a bent needle. Any hope of finding
a similar meter that I can move the faceplate? Any place that
can repair meters?

All help appreciated.
thanks

Also the meter seems to stick in a couple spots.

Often, especially in the winter months, due to static electricity.

See if wiping it with water or an anti-static cloth helps.

Lick your finder and draw an X of "saliva" on the face. Works great!

Hi Chuck.

I have a SB-200, but I don't have the time to take it apart and
measure the size of the fan right now. Maybe this weekend.

In the meantime, you might load and/or ask he
http://www.harbachelectronics.com/

He sells replace parts for SB-200, SB-220 and others.

For plastic meter faces get a soft cloth and some liquid dishwashing
detergent. Use the detergent straight, no water and wipe the meter and
then buff so none remains. This has worked for years on the heath VTVM
when static builds up.
