Years ago when I was a service tech, my boss gave me a really nice 1963
vintage Motorola 1 range tube type quarter kilowatt station. The final
deck uses a pair of 4-125 tetrodes in push pull configuration. As I
recall, the plate supply is about 2200 volts. If I were to convert this
to class AB1, and regulate the screen voltage, I would get barely enough
power to be noticeably louder than my 160 watt Mirage brick. I would
like to figure out some way to make this into a usable 2 meter weak
signal amp. The tuned input and output lines are there, but I need
better tubes. What sort of changes might I consider to get this clunker
back on the air where it belongs?
