Re: Missing Battlezone voltage and Germanium diodes

Hi,
I replaced the two voltage regulators (7815 and 7805), but still no luck. At
least one of the Germanium 1N100s in that area of the board is short in both
directions. Can I use a more readily available silicon diode (like a 1N4006)
for a replacement, or does it need to be faster? Maybe more to the point,
what might have taken out the two voltage reglators and the diode? I have
tried two different A/Rs, and two different power supply blocks (wiht three
different "big blue" caps), and with any combination get ~24-25V at the 22V
test points on the A/Rs. The 24-25V is when the A/R is unloaded, tho....
Thanks,
Lewis
