Well, the screw is not therefore to make contact with the foil. Because there are 4 screws on the underside of the chassis to make contact to the foil and make a faraday shield to protect against RFI. You can see that very well in the picture of a Nomad 55W I found in the internet. ( Bare screws...

@PlankSpanker , you have a pm

Thanks a lot, I've found the ebayshop and the 47uf caps, but the problem is they have only 2000 hours service life. Soundguruman wrote it must be, when possible, at least 20.000 hours. I did not found the 22uf caps at that site.

Ok, thanx, was it difficult to de-solder and re-solder the caps? I havn't found yet the right capacitors, Semicom in the UK did not have them anymore. I only found someone that have the 22uf caps.

Hi ok that's fine. You can see the screw between the 3th and 4th EL 84 but than a little backwarts. It is a very long one and there is a hole in the chassis with screw thread. (of course) It's a pity that I cannot post a picture but it is the same like on the picture from the linked thread. If...

Hi guys, I'm new here and from Germany. I've bought a used very fine Nomad 45 with an amazing tone. As I looked in the back I saw a strange long screw in it. The screw did not connected anything but it must be original Mesa. I was thinking about it and what I think is, this could be made a...
