See THE ART OF ELECTRONICS or the ARRL Handbook. Let me know what circuit you are using and I'll be glad to help you work something out. Remember that the transformer must deliver full voltage _under_load_ and that overvoltage is OK; in fact that's what the regulator is supposed to take care of. I wouldn't use a 3-amp regulator on a load that is drawing 3 amps continuously. It pays to be conservative. -- ------------------------------------------------------- Michael A.
