4) Trim the excess lead length.
5) Solder the socket tab.
Table 5.1 shows the pins that should be connected to the PWB.
– Repeat the connection process for each PWB-to-socket connection, being careful to match
up the right pad on the board with the right connection on the socket. (See Figure 5.2 c .)
This is best done by starting at pin 1 on one side of the socket, and on pin 9 on the other
side.
The final step in assembly of the amplifier PWB is to make the heater connections to the three
sockets on the board. The following procedure is recommended.
– Identify pins 4 and 5 on the tube sockets. These pins are used for the heater connections.
– Unscrew and remove the standoff adjacent to pins 4 and 5 on each socket. This will
facilitate access to the pins.
– Open the “Heater Circuit Wire” package; cut one 9-inch piece of #22 green wire and one
9-inch piece of #22 brown wire.
– Place one piece of heat-shrink tubing over one end of each wire.
– Crimp the green wire on pin 4 of V1. Solder in place. When soldering, make sure the heat-
shrink tubing is pushed back on the wire so it is not near the soldering point. If the heat-
shrink tubing gets hot it will be very difficult to slide into position later.

Note 1: On early versions of the PWB, pin #7 was also connected to a ground lug
adjacent to the tube socket via a short (1.5-inch #22) black wire.
