Title: Vacuum variable cap Post by: WU8V on June 10, 2008, 09:36:07 PM I have a vacuum variable capacitor that looks incomplete... hopefully, these pics will show what I am trying to explain, and someone will know the story behind this thing... thanks WU8V
As you can see in the end photo, there is a cavity that I believe there should be some sort of slug or something? The bracket is some sort of phenolic material and there is a rubber grommet type thing at the "hole" end Specs...325-505 pF 20KV 60A Title: Re: Vacuum variable cap Post by: w4bfs on June 11, 2008, 07:37:03 AM In other vac varys I have seen, a threaded 'puller' goes inda hole and engages the movable part .... I really can't tell from the picture but this type may require an expandable collet (sort of like a pop rivet) to engage ... looks like newer stuff ..73 AMfone - Dedicated to Amplitude Modulation on the Amateur Radio Bands
