I just added 160 to my 80/40/20 3CX3000A7 amp. It is configured as a Pi-L for the upper bands but I switch the C2 to the other side of L2 for 160M operation using a RB3 Relay. The relay also switches

would be necessary. I merely hooked up the 50 resistor to the output of the tuned circuit and fed power to the input and watched the SWR as I adjusted the trimmers(one on each side of the toroid indu

Yes you can use a 50 ohm resistor right across the tuned circuit. I aligned my input circuit this way, using the values from the K8RA amplifier in QST, 20 years ago. It called for 4000 pf capacitors

I have completed the alignment of the tuned input of my 3CX3000A7 using a 50 ohm non-inductive resistor connected between the cathode and ground. I then drove the input with my FT1000 and was able to

Don't let anyone tell you slapping a resistor from the output of the network to ground simulates the load by the tube. It doesn't. You initially got lucky Bob. It fell apart on 160 because of the fi

BOB, Sorry I didn't respond to this post earlier, the input impedance of a 3 BY 3 is closer to 35 OHMS if I remember correctly. While this resistor procedure will get you very close it takes tweaking

Yes Tom might be closer with the 60 ohms, I've been working in YC-156's lately, massive B+ hits, brain failures, cellular destruction, beer consumption, standard ham stuff. I've got a couple 3 By 3 p

Not wanting to get involved with cooling problems while adjusting the amp under full steam, I opted to redo the tuned input using 69 ohms from the cathode to ground. I had to shuffle the fixed silver
