A single 811 usually has a cathode Z of about 200 ohms, so three in parallel would be 67 ohms and put that in parallel with 150 ohms makes 50 ohms. The low pass filter has the only reactive component

If its not been opened up, then it has the 15 meter low pass filter on the input board just like the schematic shows. I still think the problem is with that filter or its connections to make a tuned

And so the driver and the PA don't interact so much. Remember all the plate current flows in the cathode too (plus grid current) so the input and the output tuned circuits are in series with the tube

The best monitor for output and modulation is an oscilloscope. With it, you can see carrier level changes and overmodulation, both upward and downward. The 100 watt linear will start to clip upward m

If the carrier stays at 14.5 watts, the peaks can only be 58 watts for full modulation. As a practical manner, the difference between 80 watts and 100 watts can only be measured locally, not at any d

While a bit more than 100% positive modulation is possible, it comes with distortion of the modulating waveform, and when hams (in the long) past have invented schemes for 200% or greater positive mo

Now you are delivering distorted audio to the modulator, probably with some DC offset that isn't supported by capacitor or transformer coupled audio stages. To get asymmetrical modulation without ove

When you average an audio signal amplified with an AC amplifier, e.g. capacitor or transformer coupled there is no DC component. It probably is symmetrical about that average value. So when it gets t

Normally in high level modulation the PA has to produce a peak power 4 times the carrier power, that's accomplished by doubling the supply voltage in a plate modulator. That works IF the tubes can ta
