361. Re: [Amps] TL922 failure - SOLVED (score: 1)

As usual, it turned out to be my fault. I put a small ww resistor in series with the filament transformer primary to reduce the filament voltage to exactly 5.0v. The resistor has been there for years

This isn't a problem, just a phenomenon that I would like to understand. I have a TL922. Mods include directly grounded grids. I also measured the filament voltage with my Fluke true RMS meter and pu

The power increases after I transmit for a while. Then if I leave the amp on standby, it goes back to what it was before. But this resistor has the same current through it whenever the amp is on. If

1. I have often wondered whether the filament voltage should be measured under full power or in standby. I operate CW only, so even during a transmission, 50% of the time the voltage is at the key up

I will check the resting plate current. My bias circuit has been modified to cut off the tubes in key up. There is a zener, and there are some other components that might be changing value, so that's

The input network is a possibility. Wattmeters are a possibility, though I've noticed this with two different ones. No lowpass filter. There are no traps or inductors/capacitors in the transmission l

This morning, for some reason, the phenomenon did not occur. I was getting close to 1400 watts the whole time. I always operate CW in the SSB position -- the warning in the manual against this is (I

I did measure the voltage at the tube pins. I haven't measured it while transmitting, because the RF drives my meter crazy. I assume the voltage drops a bit. Unfortunately I no longer have my trusty

Yes, I found it here: <https://www.w8ji.com/filament_voltage_life.htm> He notes that the Eimac specs for the 3-500Z call for 4.75-5.25v. What I should do is check my line voltage (it is usually prett

The line voltage was 235, about what it usually is. The amp is wired for 240v (my model also has a 220v tap). When I removed the resistor that I had added, the filament voltage was 5.1 volts in stand

Thanks, Paul. I'm going to look into possible line voltage drops. I can think of some areas of concern that I can improve. Thanks for the signal report! I'm running about 1300-1400w into a dipole at

I read his article. He uses an RF filter. I might try that. My meter is a "good" one, a Fluke. But of course I've never sent it out for calibration. 73, Victor, 4X6GP Rehovot, Israel CWops #5 Formerl

Here is a theory: the 3-500z in the AL80b suffered a flashover from the plate to the grid. I don't know the details of the AL80b circuit, but possibly the current surge resulted in a high voltage app
