- OK...gonna slowly bring up an old amp that runs on 240VAC only. I have 240VAC into the shack and a 240VAC variac (Powerstat model 246). I went to hook it up and...I can't figure it out :-( The wall s

- I have a broadband, solid-state amp that seems to have a large-signal "suckout". The small-signal gain across the HF band is as expected, 10.5dB decreasing to 9.5dB at 30MHz. But under full drive, th
