I have a commercial amp that uses a pair of GU74B's (4cx800a's). Due to a recent cable failure in the filament circuit, there was no filament voltage, but plate voltage, screen voltage and RF drive w

As several people predicted, my pair of GU74B's does not seem to have been damaged by accidentally running them without filament voltage. All is fixed now. Incidentally, this amp is a TenTec Titan II

Regarding 8877 tube life, I can tell you that in my working days we ran an 8877 amp at 250 watts output 24/7 for 15 years, without ever changing the tube. The amp was transmitting IRIG-B time code on

I own an Al-1500, and my buddy W7WW has two of them. We have found that the wattmeter is extremely sensitive to variations in swr or load impedance. It's a great amp though. Dave Hachadorian, K6LL Yu

THIS MAY BE A HAZARDOUS SITUATION. THE GREEN SAFETY WIRE MAY BE CARRYING FULL PRIMARY CURRENT. The following discussion assumes that you are operating the amp on 240V AC. The schematic shows that the

Here's an excerpt from the AL-1500 Manual: "NEVER REWIRE THE POWER SUPPLY TO BOOST THE HIGH VOLTAGE ABOVE 3700 VOLTS." At normal 3600 V, the Al-1500 puts out 1500 W with about 50 watts drive, so why

There are eight 450V caps in the filter string. At 4KV, you are really walking on the wild side. The caps won't get warm, and they won't hiccup. One of these days, you will experience the big bang. D

The AL-1500 has a stack of eight 450V caps, and a plate voltage of 3600. 8x450=3600, so Ameritron didn't leave any headroom there. The manual cautions to make sure the plate voltage does not exceed 3

The spitting noise is probably the tune capacitor arcing. That is a sign of underloading. Turn the load control more clockwise, and the spitting should stop. If your load control is already at max, t
