Additionally, some tubes (the old 35T comes to mind) have tantalum anodes. Tantalum has the property of absorbing gas when it gets hot, unlike most materials. So tantalum anodes are designed to run h

I use a hand held propane/butane torch to get up to around 700 deg C for silver soldering with what we call Easiflo 2- about 620 deg C melting point. That's about red heat. 73 Peter W6/G3RZP -- Whate

W0UN commented on aluminium characteristics changing with age. Very true. Generally, I find a bit of the heat treatment works anyway. 73 Peter GW3RZP/P _______________________________________________

Personally, I find working to 0.001 inch easier than working to 4 microns. This is because I'm working to a single unit, rather than a number of them. Beer is far better in 20ounce pints than 16 ounc

Back when I had almost limitless supplies of 6146Bs, I ran a pair at 1200 volts on the plates. They lasted well, provided you didn't run steady carrier, and gave about 180watts PEP out with 3rd order

For 400 watts, I think you might get it with 4 6146Bs, with 1400 on the plates. You would need lots of cooling, no speech processing, a pulser for tuning, a big box of spares and no SSTV or RTTY. The

If it doesn't get too hot on open circuit, the iron losses aren't too high. If it doesn't get too hot on short circuit, the copper losses aren't too high. Probability is that it won't get too hot in
