Greetings all;
I've got the Heathkit 'Advanced Weather Station' (it fits the
charter: its old and has a Z-80 running it! B^} ) which (still) seems to
have the classic problem of blowing fuses (and other things) once or twice
a year as the fluorescent tube used for the LCD backlighting ages.
There was a rumour that Heath had developed a mod for the power supply to
deal with this, but this was also right around the time that Heath was
bailing out of the kit business and closing their retail outlets so the
staff at the time was much less than interested in trying to track down
this information.
I've finally got annoyed enough at this recurring ritual, that it is
either time to find a fix, or off the thing in favour of a 'Davis' unit
(or similar)
Anyone out there have the information on this mod? (or can confirm that it
never existed?)
Thanks;
-jim
