141. [Amps] Initial RF testing of 4CX1000A amplifier (score: 1)

After fixing various stupid mistakes (including mislabeling input and output connectors -- really!) I applied some RF drive to my new amplifier for the first time tonight. In order to stay out of tro

I have one which I use on those bands, with some nervousness. Power output is about 900-1000 w CW instead of 1200-1300 I get on other bands. FWIW this amp has grids directly grounded. Vic k2vco _____

My meter reads -10 - 0 - 40. Actually it is a normal meter with a new scale. There is a 10 mA bleed which brings the pointer to zero when there is no screen current. Very clever idea by GM3SEK. I'll

I've finally applied full drive to my 4CX1000A amplifier. Here is what I'm seeing: I have tried two tubes, both pulls. In one case I can run about 1kW out, and with the other, maybe 1200. What happen

Gerald, I have only tested so far on 40 meters. There are no fixed capacitors in the tank on this band...but there is a ferrite choke across the output. I'll check to see if the choke is heating. I d

I have a vernier on it. Maybe I exaggerated -- it's not all that bad, just different. It is smooth. I just need to get used to it. A plus: the screen meter is very useful as a tuning indicator! None

Q should be about 12. I have discovered that the screen meter is the tuning indicator. I have my trip point set at 35 mA, so I have so far kept it at 25-30 mA. I have still only tried it on 40M. I'm

Maybe I'll learn more when I try it on other bands. I think California is less interesting these days than you may believe! OK, on 40 you have 375mA or so of RF current in the choke. My suspicion was

According to the data sheets, they are very different. The 1500B has a special grid structure that produces a very low level of IMD, if you operate them according to the parameters on the data sheet

I didn't intend to criticize Alpha. Alpha said they were "interchangeable in these amplifiers" which is reasonable if they are running lower screen voltage. Since they are using two tubes, the lower
