Understood. My original thought (to keep the residual current down)
was to just half_wave_rectify the mains and use that with the cap idea
as once up to potential there shouldn't be much in the way of current
(if both charger and this circuit were powered from the same mains
timer etc). It's just the coil could initially have more than 50V
across it (zener?) and I'm not sure how it would cope with un smoothed
half wave rectified current? How much current do transformers draw
when there is little load?

Yup, exactly what's needed. As long as the cct can reset quickly (so
that would be down to a 'bleed' resistor across the cap presumably)
then the timer could just provide a 1 min off time. If not I guess 15+
mins (as per the mechanical timers) may be required

That's another thought, slugging the start up of the charger to after
the selector has stepped. It would be quite easy to (safely / easily)
cover that with two cheap digital 24hr time switches [1] but a single
solution would be 'cleaner'.

I use a Sharp MD R60 once a month recording and transcribing public talks
and more
testingly Q&A from the audience in acoustically about the worst possible
environment.
Rarely do I miss a word if I do it is some obscure technical term. Two basic
electret mikes on fine multistrand cable and rubber
sleeving plugged directly into the recorder and acoustically decoubled body
by use of a "Benny" between it and the table.
I'm always amazed by the clarity of sound.

It was a video IPod a relative gave me before I bought the Touch. Those
had a common problem and they had a name for it "ink spot". The backlight
is a couple leds on the bottoms of a plastic diffuser that spreads the
light out evenly behind the LCD. I'm guessing it was dropped
because the former owner won't admit to it. It came apart nicely once I
looked up where the latches were, a thin pocket knife blade did nicely.
You can buy the replacement cheap enough along with the plastic
disassembly tool. I decided to buy the Touch instead of repairing the
video IPod and reassembled it. It works fine audio wise and the display
issue is only a nuisance not interfering at all with selecting songs and
other menu items.

The feature on the MD-SR60 I like the most is the sync mode for
recording. This allows the SR60 to start and stop recording automatically
by sensing audio. It's very useful for surveillance or recording from
my police and public service scanner. No dead spaces in between activity.
I used it a couple weeks ago to record the local airport air traffic
control inbound traffic frequency and caught an inbound flight having
difficulty verifying the locked position of it's nose gear. One thing it
lack though is the extended modes of the Sony as it use a couple extra
MDLP modes to increase record/playback times the Sharp can't handle.
The modes are fairly useless for music but for voice recording they are
more than sufficient. This is the MZ-NF610 Type-s Net Med TV/Weather/FM/
AM model. Advantages over the Sharp is it can load discs at several times
normal speed using a USB cable. It also has some good playback EQ modes
for better bass and treble. And the wired remote has an LCD screen on it.
I use it to listen to Sirius radio throughout the house when I'm doing
chores. I recently added an indoor Sirius receiver because sometimes in
bad weather the signal from my Sirius radio in the SUV is interrupted.
That's understandable since the signal has to pass through a garage roof
to get to the receiver.

I have three players that won't play any disc. I also have two others
that work fine. didn't do anything to the players that won't play,
that I know of. haven't dropped them or anything. Can't figure out
why they all of a sudden won't play and if there's anything I can do
about it.

I have disc's that play fine on two of my players but no disc's at all
will play on these three.
in other words, it's not the discs it seems to be the players. can't
figure out if there's anything I can do.

maybe a lens cleaner disc would work. wonder if I can find one. I'll

I doubt if it's coincidence. Maybe a bad disc damaged the three. Do the
'bad' players read the TOC? Can you try to add names to the tracks to see
if that gets written to the TOC? Something just doesn't add up.

Never ever use 'cleaner' discs - not that I recall ever seeing one for a
mindisc anyway. They invariably never do anything to help, and in the case
of DVDs, I've seen them cause expensive damage where the little 'brush'
hairs embedded in the disc, have caught in the lens suspension, and mangled
it as the disc has then rotated. I used to do a lot of work on Sony MD
players, when a guy that I did work for was a regional service centre. For
the most part, failure to play discs is down to a worn out laser. Sometimes,
you can get around that for a while, by resetting the laser parameters via
built in diagnostic software, but it is a complex and tricky procedure to
do. Another thing to check is that when the disc is loaded, it is free to
rotate. I had many examples where the turntable had been pushed down on the
motor shaft, until it jammed the motor. Another very common problem was
'crap in the works'. The sled drive comprises gears with *very* fine teeth.
The slightest bit of contamination in them, is enough to stop the gears from
turning. The contamination in question, often seemed to be very fine sand,
but I guess that it could have been 'pocket grit'. Just one grain in one of
the gear teeth, will jam the mech and stop the laser from homing, which will
result in the disc failing to spin up, and the TOC not being read. Finally,
I suppose you do actually see the display come up and hear the disc loading
as though it's about to do everything normally ? I have had cases where the
door-closed sense switch has caused problems. A word of warning though. You
need to have the patience of a saint to work on these things, and some very
fine tools, including a quality set of Philips jeweler's screwdrivers, and
pointed tweezers. Magnetize the screwdriver first. The tiny little screws
are no bigger than an ant, and easily lost. Work on a large sheet of paper,
and use a strong light, and a magnifying glass. And you need to be able to
hold your breath pretty well, also ... d :-|

I have three players that won't play any disc. I also have two others
that work fine. didn't do anything to the players that won't play,
that I know of. haven't dropped them or anything. Can't figure out
why they all of a sudden won't play and if there's anything I can do
about it.

Because its Yamaha? On some EMX I've disassembled to trace down an
immediate shut down problem I've been searching for 30 mins for a ground
connection between PSU/ PA/speaker ground to the mixer circuit ground.
Finally found it: one single M3 screw between the speakons connects the
power ground to the back plate, the backplate itself is connected to the
sheet metal shielding when assembled correctly and this is then
connected to mixer and preamp ground.
When the screw or the shielding comes loose, the PAs offset will grow
and shut down.

Excuse me!!
Would you stop for a moment?!
O...man...Haven't you thought-one day- about yourself ?
Who has made it?
Have you seen a design which hasn't a designer ?!
Have you seen a wonderful,delicate work without a worker ?!
It's you and the whole universe!..
Who has made them all ?!!
You know who ?.. It's "ALLAH",prise be to him.
Just think for a moment.
How are you going to be after death ?!
Can you believe that this exact system of the universe and all of
these great creation will end in in nothing...just after death!
Have you thought, for a second, How to save your soul from Allah's
punishment?!
Haven't you thought about what is the right religion?!
Read ... and think deeply before you answer..
It is religion of Islam.
It is the religion that Mohammad-peace upon him- the last prophet, had
been sent by.
It is the religion that the right Bible- which is not distorted-has
preached.
Just have a look at The Bible of (Bernaba).
Don't be emstional.
Be rational and judge..
Just look..listen...compare..and then judge and say your word.

Don't forget Santeria. And Zoroastrianism, Baha'i, Jainism,
Rastafarianism, LDS, Hinduism, Sikhism, Est, ...
And to think: all of these consider themselves to be the One True Path ...

No.
The first act Jesus performed in His public life was to turn water
into wine, so that members of a wedding party could continue to enjoy
themselves. (John, Chapter 2). Yet Mohammed wrote that wine comes from
Satan. (Sura 5, Verse 92) Any religion that equates Jesus with Satan
is not the right religion.

With all due respect, since often people don't make even the minimal
effort to find something by "Googling" (gawd, how I hate that that's now
a verb!), you didn't find what was being asked for here. Which was a
cross-reference or substitution guide for this device, not a definition
of its parameters.
I find this is true with a lot of semiconductors and other things out
there: it's fairly easy to find datasheets and technical details such as
you put up there, but often difficult or impossible to come up with a
simple answer to "what other devices can I substitute for this one,
since there's no way in hell I'll ever be able to obtain one of these?".
(Of course, you can always find another device that matches these
parameters, but that's not a trivial exercise, unless one has some handy
references available. One *might* be able to do this using DigiKey's
parameter-matching item search, but I couldn't say for sure, not having
looked up transistors using it.)

To someone who understands these specs, and knows which ones are critical
to the application, this is all that is needed. To someone who wants to
buy a NTE "drop-in" part, I suggest you go to one of the Asian parts
suppliers who advertise that they can get the original part.
I found a part rated at 1000 BVces, 450 BVceo, 30 amps, and 250 watts.
It has a f(sub)T of 10 MHz and a Vce(sat) of 2 volts at 20 amps.
Now YOU tell me if this will work or not... Both Mouser and Digi-Key
found this part.

I removed the filter cap to measure the inductance of L1 . Cap marked 1uF,
250V.
This L1 weighs about 170 gm, estimating weight of remainder components and
pcb from total of 290 gm.
Through a hole I can see some wire about 1mm diameter.
Using 1KHz RLC meter, L1 measures -2.2H on H scales and -140mH on mH scales,
don't know what that means , will try and find a manual for an Avo B183.
Maybe faulty, but measuring plain inductors through the scales is positive
and consistent across neighbouring scales.
1KHz ac resistance is 230R, DC resistance is 4K so perhaps what is labelled
as L1 is R and L in series.
Perhaps R of 4K and L of .6H , to give 230R at 1KHz, but if wholly 1mm wire
I cannot see how 600mH with 170gm of 1mm wire, strange core material?
