To me they look kinda impractical for linear techniques and particularly at HF. A 1200 watt transistor to get an average of 200 out? 73 Roger (K8RI) _______________________________________________ Am

I know what a 4CX3000A1 and A7 are, but what does the +EI stand for? Is that a one or the letter "I"? I've never seen the designation given like that before. 73 Roger (K8RI) _________________________

I'm not familiar with all of your set up, but I have found that my 756 Pro (not a III) will not key the 76A unaided. I welded the relay contacts together the first time I used it. OTOH it keyed the H

Just use a Triac and let it ramp up the voltage over a few seconds...say 5 or 10. After the ramp up, switch out the Triac with a relay as they tend to be a bit noisy. Mostly it's the diac keying that

The data sheets I have do not list any warm up times. IOW, throw the switch and go. It does state that Inrush current should be limited to two times normal current during turn on to limit thermal str

Not all tubes do this and my experience is limited to just a few. The filament and cathode are probably the most massive structures in there other than the anode which has plenty of cooling. If I kil

If it's really as bad as they measured (which I assume it is) then I'd also assume that there are going to be a lot of disappointed users as well. Course if they only use them on FM will any one noti

Let me take a shot at this: I'm sure some one else can do this more clearly than I but... First, lets separate the lower stages from the driver and final. Lets say your transceiver has an audio pass

Are you familiar with Tetrode tuning? At what level of screen current do you start getting secondary emission? I've not heard of any problems with GE constructed 4CX1000A's. GE has built a lot of hig

I forgot to mention that most of these tubes run reverse screen current with low drive and power levels. Mine (4CX1500B/FU728F) only goes to positive screen current near the US legal limit output. At

This not only makes the regulated supply much more simple as the supply always sees a positive load. The value of the resistor should be of such that the supply always sees a normal load that never g

Typically all I've used ran well at reduced power levels even with reversed screen current, but I've never seen a need for running an amp at less than half to three quarters power. The idea just neve

I think you will find that most Tetrodes in this range *will* have a range of reverse screen current. To me that means normal The Pentode is a different animal. They were designed specifically to add
