I drilled access holes through the top of the chassis then used RV silicon adhesive to bind them to the metal. But I am not to sure of the integrity of the contact and if it will hold well. Whats a good way to ensure they remain standing upright? I like the way they look sitting behind the 5687 so I would like to keep them there. What do you guys do?

I keep them in the same location and orientation, but glue them to the underside of the chassis with JB Weld. It requires a thicker base x-section... I suspect that your method would work just fine with JB Quick instead of Silicone. That 2-part is tough stuff. Just clean thoroughly first.

no problem. I'll be home tomorrow to read it. I can't remember my password, else I'd be using my proper name. Glad nobody is bent about it  I'll do a verbal The 25.2vac/2A RS TX is te one to use. Colin did a two diode, full wave( with the center tap as ground ) to RC-RC with 2R resistors. http://www.tpub.com/neets/book7/27b.htm Instead of the resistive laod, we will put in two RC filters. does this help? or were you planning on using the L-C filter?
regards,
Douglas

Yes that helps; I just need a little prodding to wire up the RC filter section. I have the two 47k caps and 4 1ohm cement resistors. The caps are electrolytics so the polarity issue is where I am not certain. I am using the RS 25v fil. trans.
The diodes are the 5408 for now because I had a pair on hand. Question; can we use hexfreds?
I have plenty of room underneath for changes. I am going to take photos of the wire-up for future reference. Or I can post as I go along if anyone's interested.

See? my moniker still works. On the cap thing, I assume you remember the lead next to the stripe is negative and will be attached to the common return/filament ground. The voltage will be dealt with on the positive side.
