- Hi folks, Doing some tinkering here, I worked out a polynomial based on Eimac's GG constant current curves for the 8877 to calculate static plate current based on a given bias voltage. Does anyone ha

- / As I read it, 8.2V of cathode-grid bias produces c. 185mA of ZSAC. However, even at 90mA of ZSAC, an 8877 is so much cleaner than today's transceivers, it would make virtually no audible on-the-ai

- Thanks! It's just a tinker-project anyway, but I thought it would be closer than that. Some day down the road I'd like to work out a real model, so that I could watch things spin around in SPICE. No

- Drifting a bit off topic for AMPS, but I have been wondering for a long time why someone would pay double $$ for a FT-1000D over a MK-V. Is the MK-5 really that bad, or the FT-1000 really that good?

- Looks really close to me, Jim. I agree, Rich. When running an 8877 at the full 4KV, I have always used 12 volts of bias to cut the heat in the shack down a bit. I doubt if there is any measurable dif

- Another thing to remember that any published curves and numbers are probably averages. The bias "curve" is really a big, fat, wide "smear." Different tubes of the same type might have bias voltages t

- Thanks, Phil. I penciled in a 12V 50W zener for use at 3900V, but haven't gotten anything off paper yet. I'm also fiddling with a silicon bias switch and regulator combo, but have a ways to go. I lik

- / ref. Fig. 7 on my Web site/ The potential across the optocoupler (Q2) and the bias switch transistor (Q1) is typically <25v at cutoff/Rx and <1v during Tx. Q1 is rated at 100v. Q2 is rated at 80v.
