Notes to Circuit Diagram
D.C. Voltage Measurements:
Check the DC voltages first, because any deviation from
the nominal voltages will affect the AC voltage. In the power
amplifier section, Q31 to Q38, the key DC voltages are +94
(collector of Q33, Q35, and Q37). +22 (collector of Q31), and
the split voltage at the junction of R17, R19, R20, and R22.
If these three key DC voltages are correct, then proceed with
the AC voltage measurements.
The numbers within the symbols on the circuit diagram
denote the D.C. voltage at that point with the following test
conditions:

Voltages measured at points indicated with respect to
chassis, unless otherwise indicated.
Line voltage 120v. 60 Hz (cps).
No input signal applied.
D.C. voltage measurements may vary ±20% from the
values shown.
Measured with a VTVM of 11-megohms input imped-
ance.
Q27 transistor voltages on the circuit diagram are with
the master reverb switch in the “IN” position. With the
master reverb switch in the “OUT” position, Q27 vol-
tages are: emitter 4.0, base 0.0, and collector 22.0
A.C. Voltage Measurements:

denote the A.C. voltage at that point with the following test
conditions:

greater input impedance.

Shure part numbers are not shown in the parts list
accompanying the circuit diagram if parts are readily available
through local electronic parts supply distributors. In these
instances, the circuit diagram will show the values of the
standard parts.
All capacitor values are shown in microfarads. All nonelec-
trolytic capacitors are to be 100 volts or more unless otherwise
specified in the circuit diagram. Electrolytic capacitors are
shown in microfarads and volts.
All resistor values are shown in ohms. Resistors are all to be
10% tolerance unless specifically noted on the circuit diagram.
Resistors shown in the upper two lines of circuitry on the
diagram are ¼ watt unless otherwise specified. Resistors shown
in the lower line of circuitry are ½ watt unless otherwise
specified.
