READ FIRST BEFORE CLICKING BUY IT NOW !This is
NOT AN OEM KIT.
The parts in this kit will get your amplifier working because these electronic parts have the same function & electrical characteristics of the original equipment parts. All Capacitors are radial not Axial. Of course. Useable tubes. Functioning Relays. Some parts may be of a higher current or voltage rating than original. They will work fine. The transistors may not be the same part number. But they will work if installed correctly. E.B.C. Emitter Base Collector.
You have to have
TOOLS
such as : 30 to 60 watt Iron or variable larger soldering gun. Solder ; paste , at least one surgical tweezer ; needle nose plier & Cheap Analog Multimeter. Optional but good to have. Transistor checker/Capacitor tester.
A basic understanding of BJT transistors like emitter, base , collector LOCATION. The legs of the PNP or NPN transistors in the kit. How Diodes function. Signal & rectifier diodes. Anode - cathode. Capacitors - +. Relays.
You can teach yourself quickly these basics.
DO NOT BUY THIS KIT IF YOU
THINK IT IS "PLUG & PLAY" & DO NOT BUY IT IF YOU THINK IT IS SOMETHING
Else OTHER than a Colection of PARTS to be Installed BY YOU.
The two piece Palomar 300A Amplifier uses similar parts and is a similar design to the Palomar Skipper 300.
Thus the refurb Kit and Installation guidelines are similar. Please go to this Ebay link for a short tutorial
or thesis to get a picture and idea how to and why to.

Though I have the chassis of one. It has been stripped of many parts. Checked the schematic.
This kit consists of the fallowing upgrade parts.
1 x 10uf 25v electrolytics
4 x upgrade 3amp rectifier diodes.
3 x [2N2905] Sub transistors.
1 for receive pre-amp 1 for key-up circuit 1 extra !
2 X 120uf 450v Low leakage, Low ESR modern FRESH Capacitors. Radial not Axial.
They are also smaller. Please read the Skipper add.
2x 1000uf 35v Electrolytic " " " " "
1 x small signal diode
2 x 1 amp diodes
The High Voltages in this AMP can be lethal. Humor me. Read the Skipper 300 listing.
