- 1500pF minimum will protect the grid fusing R from RF. Also, the 220 needs: 1. a 10-ohm 10W glitch resistor in series with the +hv line prior th the HV-RFC. 2. glitch diodes to protect the meter move

- Gentlemen: The information I have read concerning improvements to the SB220 contain a recommendation to replace the grid chokes-to-ground with resistors and to replace the stock 200 pf mica capacitor

- Didn't the 30L1 do this as well? Maybe they all copied Collins. As I understand it, the caps are series resonant with the grid lead inductance at some frequency, and -- at least at that frequency --
