Hi Jeff, that sounds like a really nifty device. Personally, I like the idea of having an air flow switch and your heat sensor. Easy for me to say huh? It seems that the air flow sensor could be set

Hi Roger, to me, hefty means it can be picked up by hand but elicits a "grunt" in the process. Ameritron's largest transformer is used in the AL82/1200/1500 amplifiers. My AL1500 6m amplifier has a s

Hi Dan, the binocular transformer causes the two transistors in the amplifier to operate in a push-pull fashion. A characteristic of push-pull design is that the fundamental and all odd harmonics com

Hi Don, the center tap of these transformers are connected to the case and therefore would be grounded. If you design your tester so that it operates with the output voltage referenced to ground, the

Since perception is everything, as they say, you might consider using an adequate blower for the amplifier and an audio recording of a jet plane takeoff to play in the background. This could save a t

That is an interesting plate choke variation. Can the idea be extended to include the lower bands as well? If so, the plate choke would be at a nominal 50 ohm point on all bands and exert very little

Kevin, the input circuits are "kind of" a pi type on the higher bands as well. The missing C is furnished by the input C of the tube grid to cathode capacitance. I say "kind of" because the input C c

Hi Bruce, you mentioned "light operating" and that makes me wonder if you are running the amplifier at less than rated drive, plate current and power input/output? If so, the plate load impedance is
