Finding fuses in Phoenix is increasingly frustrating....

...with Radio Shacks long gone and Fry's Electronics allowing stock to disappear while reevaluating their marketing strategy.. I did find some fuses labled 3A. slowblow, but one of those popped, so I'm back to 4s.. I'm going to order from Mouser some genuine Littelfuse 313(3AG)s in 4A. and 5A. so I don't have to chase around town--or pay $3 each at the hardware store.
My MA-1 uses 5s in both the 1st (output-stage B+) and 2nd (filament) positions, so they'll be useful.
I'm quite happy with the sounds from using just three pairs per channel; perhaps when I'm heating the house during Phoenix's short nonsummer I'll increase the pair-count to four.. :-)
