Thanks Bruce for posting that very informative site. I am in the same boat as Alex..... want to play with one but not sure of what goes where. That 800 manual EVEN has pictures to guide people like Alex and I for at least a static display.

Now for my other ??? Roberta ..... how do you apply power slowly to sort of warm it up to life gain. I have the large 12/24 volt power supply and variable rheostat surplus from surplus NRC test beds ....... also the later 110 volt power supply....... any idea how much voltage for how long?? I am afraid that lower voltage will create a "brown out" effect that might cause its own damage.

I understand they generate a lot of heat so with long Winter evenings coming I can play with the 19 set and add to the warmth of the house hihihi!!! but not smoke up everything.
