Id be tempted to hear Ians view of the 2nd one particularly since it is so dear 
to his heart....2M IMD in his back yard.

  Hsu,

  You can make a good shunt screen stabiliser using an op-amp and a tetrode, 
this was done many times for 4CX250B, 4CX1000A etc. before the Tetrode Boards 
from Ian G3SEK...

  See here (second half of article):

      http://www.agder.net/la8ak/d23.htm

  and here:

      http://www.qsl.net/g3uvr/4cx250/G4AJW-psu.pdf

  for the 4CX10000D you would need a bigger tube ;-)      The BBC long-wave 
transmitter (198KHz) used to use a 4CX1500A as the shunt screen stabilizer for 
the 250KW tubes made by Thompson ESF.

  I'm just not sure which tube you should select for the job... perhaps someone 
on the list can make recommendations...?

  Happy newyear to everybody!
  I have no experience on building over 2kW amplifier.I'll try this project 
  this year.
  I just get a brand new socket and will oredr some parts after new year.
  I think the regulated screen supply to mess with too.
  I study DC9DZ 4CX10000D amplifier project,
  DC9DZ use expensive high power and rare zener diode in serial as screen 
  shunt regulator power supply ,
  but I think it is expensive and poor dynamic spec and bad IM3.
  I think the screen power supply based on G3SEK's design is the best, but as 
  4CX10000D and 4CX5000's sceeen
  PS is difficult , too much power and too high voltage , even parallel and 
  serial over 10 MOSFETs. Any suggestion?
