- is a 3cpx800a7 the same tube as the 3cx800a7 (difference being the "p"). and can 3cpx800a7 be a replacement for the 3cx800a7 in my titan amp? thanks....Steve -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.contesting.com/

- The 'p' usually means rated for pulse duty. It outta work ok in linear service. Are you replacing kaput tubes in your Titan 425? Rich-- R. L. Measures, 805-386-3734, AG6K -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.c

- The tubes are not the same - the 3CPX being desinged primarily for pulsed use - the P indicates pulsed. However, you probably can use the pulsed (3CPX) tube, but there is likely to be some difference

- With 13.0 v on the heaters, probably about 20k hours, Steve. However in the Titan 425 I worked on, both tubes were on the verge of failure after 25 operating hours. - The symptom was an arcing probl

- Same tube in this case Steve, but better testing. Be sure to add a grid over-current protection circuit to your amp. If it does not have one, or you will eat up the new tubes. A fuse is NOT enough,

- - 100mA equates to about 2.7w. Mr. Rauch assumes that all bouts of excessive grid current in 3CX800A7s/8877s/8874s ... is due to operator error, et cetera -- a.k.a. Not Invented Here Syndrome. . Dur

- Agreed. My copy of Bill Orr's Radio Handbook shows one version of a grid over-current protection circuit designed, as I recall, by W8ZR. Some years ago, a fellow (might have been ZR) was selling prin

- It might be a good idea to take a look at the insides of a kaput, out-of-warranty 3CX800A7 beforehand. To do this, clamp the kaput tube's anode in a vice. Use a 32-tooth/inch (sheet metal cutting) c
