More power for K2

gwwhatley@juno.com
I came into a cheap old Yaesu FP 107E power supply which works fine, except for somewhat low voltage output.  I notice the transformer has several taps, but I'm afraid to mess with it, since I have no manual.  
 
I would be beholden to anyone who has a manual for this unit, and would be so kind as to send info on how to change the taps for higher voltage.  Also, a copy of the schematic would be nice.  
 
Many thanks, George, N4YM

George,

I don't have a manual or a schematic, but I would think that is a regulated
supply - if so, changing the transformer taps will only change the bulk
voltage but should not change the output.

There may (or may not) be a pot in the regulator circuit that would change
the output voltage.

Hi George, your wish is my command :-)
The manual for the FP107 is part of the full manual for the FT107
transceiver.  I have extracted the relevant bits as a pdf and forwarded
them to you separately.
