Most of the light I can easily see comes from the
ceramic body above the suppressor. I try not to
look direct at the light and it is often just seen
as reflections through the PA box holes. It looks
almost incandescent white in operation.

Other quick details of the broadcast amplifier
layout:
A single 4CX250 drives the heavily R swamped
input of the 5cx1500B. Everything is strip line
construction.
-
Despite more than average episodes of power
removal (line failures) when running full tilt, the
tube seems fairly hardy and lasts well past the
expected life span.
-
The Station most often bought Econco rebuilds
which worked very well.

Does light come from the ceramic anode-insulator?
If so, what color is the light?
thanks
