- We had one of those 1 kw Raytheon transmitters at WKOP in the early 60s and the 833A modulators were class B. But the push-pull RF final pair of 833As was class C. Victor 4X6GP (ex K2VCO) ___________

- Sorry. Here it is: I've heard that RF can damage electrolytic caps, so it it a problem. You might try paralleling a larger bypass capacitor at the bottom of the choke. If you do that, you will notice
