Chris, The industry standard dot matrix display is a great idea, but what chance manufacturers agree to such a selfless act of kindness to us end users? ;) Individuality has its costs... I'm not sure

Carl, There are alternatives Manfred. Get a pair of 8072's and some defunct 8122's. Machine off the finned radiator and push onto the 8072. That's a good hint. I had read it before somewhere, but for

Carl, I do that, whenever I use any mode that doesn't require envelope linearity! As I set the bias, it's class AB1, pretty close to B, in SSB position, and deep into class C in CW position. With the

To all tube specialists out there, I wonder whether the 4CX1500B is _intrinsically_ a low distortion tube, by any special construction techniques, or if the good IMD rating comes simply from the oper
