When we can't possibly know every circumstance in the world, never couldn't apply. Besides, VHF starts at 30 MHz. An oscillation at 30MHz in a tank resonant near ten meters could be a problem since

Yes, but not for that reason in HF amplifiers. You'll find, if you carefully investigate component breakdown, voltage flashover point depends heavily on the shape of the conductors at different pote

Boris, I can understand your frustration. It sounds like everything is identical and nothing obvious is wrong. It is not likely to be residual magnetisim since the soft iron (magnetically soft) used

By itself, that isn't an accurate statement. I would say it differently. Parasitics are more common in amplifiers that have long thin leads, especially in the tubes to the grid connections. If we ex

The conjugate match theorem tells us nothing about what goes on inside the source, never has...never will. The rules or limits of the theorem even state that. Anyone who thinks a match to the source

Most amateur transceivers are in the -30dB PEP range for low odd-order IM products. Even without ALC operation they aren't very good. With ALC they can be worse, but the duration of ALC "spits" is v

That's a big tip-off of what is happening. That effect is almost always caused by the electrical length of cables and networks and what they appear like to a sensor or detector someplace upstream to

Mike, Looking back at the posts it *seems to me* you are thinking the design of the tank sets the load Z at the tube. That's what I think is going on, so I'll answer that way. It really doesn't matt

That's certainly true with very high S/N ratios on clear frequencies, assuming the people have normal hearing and speech. I can prove the best S/N ratio and readability when signal levels have less

That's not true at all! Steady white noise is NOT a good test of dynamics of bias or ALC systems. As a matter of fact, it is the poorest test available for determining bandwidth problems related to

Joe, In order for ALC problems to be measured, you have to let the ALC actually do something meaningful. Any test that holds the ALC steady, such as a white noise or two-tone test, will not test ALC

Look at how the various meters move on voice or CW. Look at how the same meters move on a white noise source, or on a two-tone test. When they dance around similar amounts and rates, the test will h
