Gute Tag an die Runde.
Kann mir jemand von den Schaltungs-Spezialisten die geplante Funktion des Standby-Schalters näher erklären?
Ich kann die Empfindlichkeit bei geschlossenem Schalter (Empfang) verändern, wohl durch Anheben oder Absenken des Potentials der Kathoden der Eingang- und der beiden ZF-Verstärker-Röhren, aber bei offenen Schalter verstärkt das Gerät weiter, ich kann nur nicht mehr regeln. Wo kommt da das Potential der Kathoden her?
Bin für jeden Rat dankbar.
