Probably replacing the capacitor (Oil or PCB) with one about 70% the

the resonance up to 60 Hz. Be very careful of the resonant capacitor circuit,
it has quite high voltages...

look at the
capacitor connected to the transformer. That is a constant
voltage transformer and will need 50 hz to work correctly.
Hey, I have one of these on a shelf as a "spare" 8/a chassis (with almost
enough spare boards to make a spare 8a :-)). I'd like to know if the 50Hz
turns out to be a strict requirement or not. If so, is there is any easy
way to convert the thing for 60Hz?
Thanks!
