Although I know you are not a fan of the RUSSIAN tubes, what about the GU84B, the so called 4CX2500? How stable and clean is it at 50 MHz? I realize that size of components get a bit more more precis

There seems to be three camps in this discussion.. Nychrome, no nychrome, and now neither. Eliminate the parasitic; eliminate the suppressor. \If eliminating the suppressor can : ( 1 ) produce less h

Why is that impossible? On HF the resistor is almost shorted out by the inductor. The power absorbed will be less then 0.5% of the desired HF with a typical amp. 73 Peter power absorbed by the resist

The grid chokes in my TL-922 were replaced with 10 ohm resistors by the previous owner. The amp works fine except on 10 M where the resistors go up in smoke within a few seconds. This bring up severa

You and them must have back luck! I'm using a BN-86 on the TH7 and run RTTY contesting at 1500 watts. Never had an issue in the 8 years it's been up. The aftermarket baluns all seem to cause the SWR

Since the relays are arranged in a "tree" (one feeding two, each of which feeds two more) there are always three relays in line to each antenna. See: http://ameritron.com/man/pdf/RCS-10.pdf 73, ... J

Per the RCS-10 manual, you can put a shorted PL-259 in the Antenna 1 jack, and when you power down the control box, the line to the shack is grounded. Since I only have 6 antennas, this is ideal, but

Just watch the plate voltage drop in a typical amp as you add compression. Unprocessed SSB in a typical amp may show 100 volt drop while heavily processed with compression and clipping might show a 3

Thanks for the ideas, Bill. OK, so let's say I want to clean this amp up once and for all. No more accidents. For the bias string, I'm going to go with the 1N5408 diodes I already have, which have a
