221. Re: [Amps] Anybody using the Acom 1000 or 2000 with aMultiband Vertical Antenna? (score: 1)

I do not have an Acom, but any unbalanced antenna tends to be more problematic for RF interference than a dipole, beam, or other balanced antenna. It might help to add a ferrite bead choke (similar t

You have apparently not been on this reflector very long, Keith. It's at least the third, possibly fourth, go-around for me! Interestingly, representatives of both camps have been quite helpful to me

Some tube sockets have these clips over the contacts to keep pressure on them. This is important for filament pins, where poor contact can cause heating, which then results in the solder running out

What did you replace the cap with? What parameters are important here? My RS70 (about 4 years old) does have a pot to adjust the voltage. -- 73, Vic, K2VCO Fresno CA http://www.qsl.net/k2vco ________

The current drawn during the period that the filter capacitors initially charge is huge and this resistance limits the current during this time. If you are looking at the voltage drop without load, o

I believe that a similar issue can arise with directly-heated cathodes, although the delay is much shorter. I had a 3-500Z amplifier with a step start arrangement that took about 1 second to apply fu

I've had this experience with doorknobs in antenna tuners and traps as well as amplifiers. The usual doorknobs with higher values of capacitance (> 100 pf) are N750 temperature coefficient, and they

Tom is assuming that everyone knows that the transformer in the SB1000 is used for BOTH plate and filament supply. The resistor would screw up the regulation of the plate voltage. -- 73, Vic, K2VCO F

It's caused by the ALC loop in the transceiver, not the ALC connection to the amp. When you reduce power with a power level control, what you are doing is setting the point at which the internal ALC
