21. [AMPS] isolation question (score: 1)
Author: w4eto@rmii.com (Richard W. Ehrhorn)

In real life the actual rf breakdown voltage of a capacitor commonly is determined by unintended/unrecognized/unknown regions of unexpectedly high voltage GRADIENT - often many times higher volts per

22. [AMPS] Cure for "Monitor Ripple" from Amp's PS ? (score: 1)
Author: w4eto@rmii.com (Richard W. Ehrhorn)
Date: Tue, 16 Feb 1999 12:27:17 -0700
Hi Billy... It's common for the 50-60 Hz field of a transceiver or amp power transformer to cause ripple and distortion on a magnetically-unshielded CRT nearby. . Severity depends on multiple factors

Hi Carl... It's only a gut feeling, but I'd prefer a single thicker piece of Teflon to multiple thin ones, because the latter creates more interstices (!?!) between layers - where air can lie in wait

Hi Carl... All your points are well taken - particularly the first one: I really don't know whether monolithic or multi-layered is best; it likely depends on specific parameters of the application in

Hi Bill... Enjoyed reading you posting (below) - naturally! But with all due respect, even ALPHAs aren't "TOTALLY" idiot-proof. The reason is - and please understand that the following absolutely is

Hi Ivo... It's difficult to imagine any way in which an amplifier can directly introduce "chirp," which is frequency variation, onto the signal. My guess would be that mains voltage changes enough wh

If I remember right there should be 10 ohms/25W on each side of the 240V line input. 73, Dick There's a wirewound resistor in front of the xfrmr. Actually there are three of them. THey can open when

Unless I'm mistaken the original Loudenboomer came from Lee Bergren's (W0AR?) Radio Industries in Kansas City. Think Hunter built the Bandit in or near Iowa City - in Collins country. Definitely a ha

Date: Thu, 15 Oct 1998 12:02:46 -0600
Hi Gary... I'd say anywhere from 100-160 mA is typical, but of course meter accuracy (nominal +/- 5k% of FULL SCALE) isn't great at the very low scale edge. Generally the idling current of the 3CX800

Hi guys... The by-far-most-likely cause of a toasted plate choke in a 76A/CA/PA-374A-78 or earlier series ALPHA is attempting to operate it on 25-27 MHz without modification. We intentionally placed

Hi Henry... If a power tube is otherwise "perfect," ultimate useful lifetime probably will be determined by total heater-on time. OTOH, a high number of heater/filament power on/off cycles clearly co

Hi guys... FYI, at ETO/ALPHA we did come up maybe 7 or 8 years ago (?) with a solution to the 12M enablement of legacy ALPHAs. The only one that we were sufficiently satisfied with to offer as a fact

More precisely, you need to keep the LOADED 'Q' relatively low - preferably not much over 10. This in turn requires keeping total input capacitance of the pi network low, which may not be possible wh

Hi Natan... Of course I'm biased (so to speak), but I'd urge you to contact Carl, John or maybe Glenn at Alpha/Power as a start. It costs mighty little to call, and these are the guys that know the c

Craig, I have spent many hours playing with these. I used to design them! Most of the current "linear" amplifiers used in digital cellular service use feed-forward amplifiers. It's an amazing techniq

Hi Tom... 1. The main differences between a standard (unmodified) ALPHA 78 and a 374A are (a) 78 has three 8874 tubes while 374A has two, and (b) the 78 has full break-in/QSK using a vacuum T/R relay

Hello Peter... I don't have a set of FCC rules here at home, but my recollection is that (in fairly typical FCC fashion) there is no explicit "dB" IMD requirement, at least for amps. Think rules say
