Pretty close. Right values for the low-value resistors (which need to be power types), but the resistor in series with the meter is too high - your 1k has to include the meter's own internal resistan

The 8877 is well known as a *stable* tube for amplifiers at 50MHz and 144MHz. With the input and output both tuned to the same frequency, and typically 15-18dB of on-frequency gain, it's stable. If y

To answer #2, it depends on the tube and the voltage reduction you have applied. Fortunately you can measure the recovery time - or the warm-up time from cold - by measuring the heater current. The h

It depends on the combination of the transceiver, the amp and the voice. Basically it's a race against time between the transceiver and the amp. The amp gets its PTT from the transceiver, and it then

It seems to be a crossover from CB amps, via the "bricks" intended for amateur VHF-FM hand-helds that don't have a PTT output. But from there, RF-actuated switching seems to have trickled down into a

The Ameritron and some Alphas use PIN diode QSK, which is very fast and will work fine... if the transceiver timings will let it. I wonder if that's due to the very long spring arm - probably the har
