50 years ago...are you sure it wasn't a tube lol..the test circiut used a big old 2N3055 in a TO3 can with the shacks 50 volt diode , the old girl hasn't ran much above 45 deg.outside but I did check the roter and cap after both idle and wide open , there was no heat on the electrodes. I have a heat lamp and temp. probe , I will simulate a 95 or 100 deg.day and check that out. The wires are new copper , no resistance or arcing and no heat . back to the diode your correct , 50 volts is at the upper limit and on a older coils core that has gotten weak the voltages could get higher . Radio shack cant help help here ,ocean state electronics has 100 volt for .80 and 200 volt for .85 wich is cheaper than the shack anyway . The diode needs to be at least 5 amp....but 6amp at 100 or 200 volt being the better choice . Thanks for the correction . Wess
