I was able to get it to work. The wires were pushed into the holes which I put under the screws on the power supply but the real problem was that there were a few bad punchdown terminations.
All is working now except common audible ringing.

Sorry Arthur as well as being blind in one eye, and stupid; I missed the external power supply and the Gen. Taps. Maybe I'll just give this s**it up.

I'm not sure what you mean by "missed the external power supply."
If you punch down the two wires at the correct spot (bottom 2 terminals, right side) then the CMB should work.
No reason to quit now, you're almost done.

I have spares of the 3 amp fuses here on my desk but none of the 2 amp. PM me with your mailing address and I'll put some 3 amps in the mail to you.

3-amp fuses might not work. Some of the fuses that are rated for more than 2 amps have slots that are smaller (and fit screws that are smaller) so that higher-ampacity fuses cannot be used to protect a 2-amp supply. This was done so that the diode bridge (the most volatile of the various components in the DC part of the supply) would be protected against high currents.

I'll look to see if I have any 2 amp fuses, but......
If we were out in the field and did not have the right fuse with us, as a temporary measure, we would put in a thin piece of solder. In the event of a short the solder would melt and protect the equipment.
