Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

We were discussing the Fisher 50a which is pretty similar to the 55a




The 55a uses GZ34s but can use 5V4s as well but also uses 6550/KT88s. Notice the .01uf cap going into the choke right off the rectifiers.Being it is so little,I don't think that can legitimately disqualify this from being a choke input circuit.I wonder its fundamental purpose because it's not going to remove any residual AC that would make any change in the DC voltage?
