161. [AMPS] explain this one (score: 1)
Author: rakefet@rakefet.com (Vic Rosenthal)
Date: Sat, 31 Jul 1999 14:36:48 -0700
Rich, If the tank is resonated with too-light loading, the 'loaded' Q of the circuit will be much higher and so will the voltage. This can happen due to an inexperienced operator or antenna switching

162. [AMPS] Purpose of components on SB-1000 (score: 1)
Author: rakefet@rakefet.com (Vic Rosenthal)
Date: Thu, 10 Jun 1999 07:22:23 -0700
Actually I find the grid current meter very useful as an indication of the degree of loading. It's also quite easy to cause excessive grid current to flow with a 100w exciter, and it's a good warning

Author: rakefet@rakefet.com (Vic Rosenthal)

The single 3-500Z can be tuned and loaded to 550ma single tone (CW) for a very short period in order to establish the correct operating conditions for the peak of the SSB signal. It should then be dr

164. [AMPS] measuring meter shunt resistance (score: 1)
Author: rakefet@rakefet.com (Vic Rosenthal)
Date: Thu, 17 Jun 1999 22:24:37 -0700
There are ways of doing it, but maybe you should consider a different method: Put a 1 or 10 ohm resistor in series with the circuit. Then use a multiplier resistance to convert your milliammeter to a

165. [AMPS] Solid-state relay question (score: 1)
Author: rakefet@rakefet.com (Vic Rosenthal)
Date: Sun, 20 Jun 1999 09:35:55 -0700
I have a solid-state relay rated at 45 amps, 277 volts. I would like to use it in the primary circuit of my plate supply, which has a 2400 va ccs transformer in it. Is there any reason not to use thi

The design has a 25-amp 250v DPST toggle switch as a safety switch first. Then the relay will be controlled by a couple of smaller toggle switches, interlock, etc. in series. My practice is always to

Well, the secondary resistance is 26 ohms and the capacitor is 30 mf. I haven't measured the peak current, since I don't know how to do that! The relay is an Opto 22 type 240D45; the catalogs I have

You can certainly use *four* 450v capacitors of 120 mf each to be on the safe side. That would give you 30 mf instead of 33, but I'm sure it will be fine. 73, Vic, K2VCO Fresno CA -- FAQ on WWW: http

Date: Thu, 24 Jun 1999 08:05:57 -0700
Is this a bridge neutralizing circuit, in which the Cn is connected to the bottom of the grid tuned circuit, which is grounded via a second capacitor? If so, you can increase the value of this second

I have a capacitor marked only 'Sprague 1000MMFD6KVDC'. It's about 1" (2.5cm) diameter and 5/8" (1.56cm) thick. Is this a 'TV doorknob'? I had planned to use it for a blocking capacitor for my 1500-w

I've got just about all of the parts for my 2 x 3-500z amplifier except the plate transformer. I haven't been able to find one of reasonable size and weight inexpensively, so I'm thinking about buyin
