What info are you looking for? I have had a MK II for 30 + years and might be able to help.

I know everything about the on-off switch.

When you switch it to "on," that turns on the amplifier.

If it works the other way, it's installed backwards.

Seriously, if you need to replace it I think the information is in the manual.

Ahhhh, that explanes why my finals have lasted 35 years and the output is exactly the same as my exciter.

Think of how much you saved on your electric bill, though.

Not to mention 3-500's..

3-500's I wish. That's the only thing I have not done to it, add the bias and convert to 3-500's. I can't seem to kill the 3-400's that have been in it for the last 30 years!!!

Are you sure you don't have a Mark I? The Mark I had 3-400s and the MK II had 3-500s in it. Maybe a previous owner modded it although I can't imagine why.

[WA8UEG]

No, it's a MKII. Even my original manual has instructions for adding the bias and 3-500's. I bought it off a fellow who purchased it new and sold it to me when he was forced to go to a retirement home.
