I've used the indicating strips to check the temperatures on a 3-500Z in a SB-1000, with quite interesting results. As most of you will know, the SB-1K has a large muffin-type fan in the center parti

That is much more tricky, because the temperature-sensitive labels are way too big. It would either require dots of temperature-sensitive paint (and I only have 200C and 250C, which wouldn't be enoug

It's certainly very interesting - he has made some very nice plug-in ceramic coil formers of the good old-fashioned kind. However, it would be nice to see some results from the microwave-oven test, i

They used to say that about antennas too, until MININEC and NEC became available free to anyone who wants them. Certainly there are big pitfalls in computer modeling, but antenna modeling has also sh

In all areas of engineering, professionals routinely do both modeling and measurement, and use each to check the other. Setting up modeling "versus" measurement, and turning it into an argument, is s

Interesting - I've noticed the same thing in active shunt stabilizers for screen supplies. To handle some of the heat dissipation, I use a resistor in series with the drain of the MOSFET shunt device

With the correct DC voltages applied to the control grid and screen, any tetrode will work fine with both grids at RF ground. This is very common at VHF and above, and occasionally seen at HF. Accord

Remember there's a difference between the maximum grid current you would normally expect to run, and the maximum level you *could* run without damaging the tube. Depending on the speed of the trip ci

Why not? It is quite common to see mains spikes of 1kV and more on the *primary* side of the transformer. According to ANSI/IEEE statistics, "medium exposure" sites in the USA can expect several hun

These are incoming spikes on the 115/230V mains. The issue is how much they are stepped up by the transformer, and then damped down by the rectifier/capacitor. I accept Tom's statement that a power t

That's about right. Ordinary hydrocarbon-based transformer oil smells quite different... like oil. A simple test which is used commercially is to take a very small drop of the oil on the end of an ir

On the other hand, you need to protect yourself against over-zealous officials. "PCBs" is one of their trigger-words, the very mention of which can make them imagine you're operating a "Love Canal" d

I'm not disputing Tom's measurement data, but the theory still is not convincing. Reviewing where we've got to so far: hopefully, we all now agree that the capacitive coupling produces an RF voltage

Quite - no argument here. Obviously the real-world physical current at any given instant is only flowing one way - but it can be *mathematically* resolved into components of "forward" and "reflected"

It's almost certainly OK. I'm 99% sure that it's built like a GS31/35, with a flat cathode and a dome-shaped mesh grid, so there are no long, thin grid or filament structures that can sag if gravity
