21. Re: [Amps] drive power (score: 1)

I think the problem being alluded to is a burst of RF (at full output) from the transmitter/transceiver which happens before the ALC can cut in and reduce it to the proper level. If the designer does

Lost the original contents of your message but I think this might be some information of value regarding the surge resistor. I took a quick look at Eimac's 'Care and Feeding of Power Tubes' applicati

I'm not so sure the ' bean counters' should get all or even much of the blame (I also remember the Mantz TV story or urban folklore or whatever). I've been a design engineer for over 40 years - mostl

Possibly because the unterminated input meant that feedback (i.e. output reflected back to the input port via the tube capacitance) was having a much greater effect than with a lower impedance tuned

Prior to putting this plug in on EBAY, I thought I would see if anyone on the lists is interested. This is NOT a BIRD element (it lacks the Bird name, etc on the label) - no manufacturer is listed an

A very nice explanation, Tom! A nice tutorial (which I am going to save). Bob, WA2CKY Jan, I strongly disagree with the advice you have been given. The short term current really doesn't matter at all

The breakers are thermally activated - the heat being generated by the current passing through the mechanism. The trip time is related to the current AND the time - with a big current, the breaker wi

Oh, boy, this is a difficult question. First off, with a 2 MHz (i.e. period = 500 ns) narrow (i.e. 20 ns wide for a duty cycle of 4%), you have very rich harmonic generator with (if my memory serves

You can scan it into a photo image file and then print that. With the image, you can use some of the photo editing programs to clean up the image, invert black and white, etc, etc. As for the meter i

Excellent idea! I almost wish I had a meter to try your package on. Your program really seems to fit the bill - nice! 73 Bob Bob wrote (in part): Lot easier to use a program written to do the desired

Try google for 'surplus airflow switch' and you will get a lot of hits. They range from sophisticated to very simple (e.g. a sensitive microswitch with a blade where the blade sticks in the air strea

I am certainly not an expert on HV and high power amps but I certainly could guess that you had an low impedance (e.g. an arc someplace - maybe in the tube? or across air between components or across

The tube one's would probably (i.e. 'might') have fewer harmonics. Part of that is because a tube amplifier is inherently a fairly highish Q due to matching from hiZ to 50 ohms. Transistor amplifiers

I don't think you are overlooking anything - usually going to the equipment manufacturer costs you more because they have additional markups. My only recommendation would be that you use a 105 degC r

Yes. Although to generalize Barry's statements a bit, restricting the feedline to a certain length 'moves' the antenna impedance to a different impedance which is easier for the transmitter to handle
