## I can toggle bias on the back of the L4Bs so a pair of 4-400s can
be used...with NO bias.
But I forget the idle current, with 4-400s..and no bias on a L4B.
## with 3-500Zs, Idle is 40ma on CW...and 100 ma on ssb....
using 10 x 1N5408s In series. Same L4B.
IMD is good on 1900 vdc cw position.... 625 watts pep out. Ditto
with 1290 watts pep out on ssb position.

Jim,
OK, I read it in the context with tube GG amps.
I don´t use zero bias triodes in my glass tube amps but highµ connected
tetrodes. The pair of RS1002A in my L4B draw only 30mA, no key clicks and
IMD3 >30dB in SSB.
Those tubes are made for and run class B as well with grounded cathodes and
proper screen and bias voltages.

<No Jim,
<A PP RF amplifier does not need LP filters if using pi-net output
circuitry.
## Im talking about a PP SS RF amp..... like ur typ 1.5 kw SS
amp....or xcvr.
<And a GG amplifier running class B does not generate key clicks, my main
amp
<is running ZERO bias class B for more then 40 years in CW and SSB.
## any high Mu GG triode operating with ZERO BIAS will draw LOADS
of
idle current.... and is operating class AB2.
## Increase bias voltage, till idle current drops to 0-5 ma....
and u will get key clix,
try it yourself.
