Exactly! I might mention that if you plan to operate SSB, and have grid current, there will be a voltage drop across the 250 ohm rheostat that adds to the bias supply voltage. While not a really big

When I first saw a Jennings RJ-1, and compared it to the open frame relay my '220 was using, it was astonishing. That was because vacuum relays are good for isolation. However RJ-1's are virtually us

Larry, your descriptions sounds like a classic example of self oscillation. The usual fix for that is adjustment of the grid/plate neutralization circuit. There is plenty of info about this in any AR

I could be wrong about this but my recollection is that not only should the through bolts be insulated, but also the hardware at both ends as well. The idea is to prevent an accidental shorted turn t

Fletch, I have been using the same cavity amplifier for several years. Walmart has distilled water for about $.75 per gallon that works just fine. As the water ages, the screen current tends to creep

But, but, but, In a design with a grounded screen, there will be screen current showing due to the dc current generated from plate voltage flowing through the water to ground. With say, 3kvdc, and 50

The GS23B aka 4CX1600U is a wonderful tube for the cost. If you are looking for a 1500w output pa at 1296MHZ they are not as wonderful because only 1 in 6 or so will make it to that power level. On t

LLoyd, I would suggest you use a different power meter on the output to verify the accuracy of your measurements. With 2500w+ input power and 300w output power, there is a loss of 2200W+. I would exp

The screen requires a path for current flow to the cathode. If this path has too much resistance or is an open circuit, the screen grid will tend to rise to the plate potential. You can look at the t

If the input vswr of the amplifier is elevated on 30M your exciter may be reducing drive power to prevent damage. Reduced drive power = reduced output power. You can use a small tuner to reduce the i
