Hey Guy's and Gal's;

I know there are some good electrician's and electrical Engineers on this 
list and Your OLE engine buddy has a problem I have some electric light 
dimmer 
controls on lights down at my church and they are made by Hunter Electronics, 
Dallas, Texas and I was wondering if any of you had worked on these controls 
or 
would have a wiring diagram for them, The top control number is MC 50 and the 
Bottom control number is PC 20 LR. This set of lights would only burn about 
half brightness, and when I would turn the rheostat one place the lights got 
a 
little brighter and I could hear the pot humming, like arcing so I put a 
jumper 
wire across from the center terminal to one outside terminal and the lights 
got good and bright, and there is another rheostat on the same shaft that has 
never been used, how can I determine if it is the right size to work if I 
switch my wires over to it, this rheostat just had 3 wires run over to the 
terminal 
board and ended there. These controls are about 35 years old and Hunter Is no 
longer in business and the controls just look brand new when you take the 
covers off and no burned wires or anything, I would sure like to have a 
wiring 
diag. and some technical help. I have several pictures on my Webshots page 
that 
will give you a lot better idea of what is going on. I will also list my 
E-mail address so you can write off list.

I wrote this message yesterday and was afraid it didn't get through during 
the LIST computer switching around, and I sure need a wiring diagram bad, just 
thought someone possibly may have one.


Thanks,

Bill Miller.
