There is no requirement to do any thing other than switch the C-field
polarity.
No optical stuff needed.
The PRS10 switches the C-field polarity at a 5HZ rate to reduce magnetic
effects and does not do any optical tricks!
Back in Nov 2017 I detailed my A15 mods:
Set Zener current to minimum TC (I achieved < 1PPM/C at the +20V output)
This involved disconnecting the C-field circuit and replacing it with a
dual (in series ) LM299AH and 1PPM resistors. Jumperable settings and a
low TC pot for adjustment. I would have liked to use 3 LM299AH to give me
21 Volts but would need to switch the input to the unregulated supply to
give enough overhead. The higher the voltage into the C-field string the
lower the TC contribution from the C-field coil itself.
The posts have the details and schematic.
Cheers,
Corby
