Hello Javier... The rating of the capacitor is not defined by either frequency or power directly. It is determined by the voltage that appears across the plates. When using capacitors in such an ante

Hello Dennis.. I&acute;m not sure you&acute;re getting actual answers to your questions on here so far. Yes, excessively low filament voltage will result in low power output. It&acute;s not particula

I have shipped somewhere around 3,000 parcels in the last several years. I used to ship with UPS quite a few years ago. In the "old days" UPS would terminate an employee found throwing boxes. You guy

Hello Paul, I wasn't in on earlier communications in this thread, but I can say one thing first hand. I had a persnickity AL-80 that was taking off with a loud firecracker "BANG" about every tenth t

Hi Phil.. Yes, but I had no inclination at the time to do that. I do remember that the resistors were in good shape, not discolored or burnt. In fact, I bought the amp from a ham who was forced to s

Hello Paul.. Have you checked those spare vapor tubes lately? (or at least run them several hours a year or so) I know a few people who have saved those "sealed new in box" for ten years or so.. when

I'm not sure, but 2.3 ohms on a cold filament of a tube that size seems a bit high. I've never measured the cold resistance on a 12 volt filament transmitting tube, (only 5 or 7 volt tubes) but it s

I would also make sure the rotor shaft is WELL isolated from the front frame (and your hand!) by using some kind of long non-conducting shaft extention. You don't want the value of the circuit changi

I'm still amazed why transmitter manufacturers continue to use bare aluminum material for heat sinks. It is TERRIBLE at radiating heat. Forced air is necessary for any degree of efficient cooling. T

I agree on the QSK-5, excellent product... While 3 Ameritron amps I've had all had some parasitic problems, (that were easily remedied) the worst problem I've had with the QSK-5 was a blown lamp fuse

I agree with Tom completely... When you have elevated (or insulated) radials you should never tie the coax to a "DC" ground at the feedpoint. I discovered this by accident doing mobile experiments ov

Hi Paul... It might make sense to take those spare CVs out of Fort Knox and put filament voltage on them once in a while. The below-mentioned W5GEL had a new spare that he kept handy for some 15 or

Hello Paul.. There could be two schools of thought here. There could be some danger to the filament as voltages are rising, cathode isn't fully hot yet, maybe the grid isn't sufficiently negative ye

Hi Dan... I have a "sense" of what is common practice among seasoned hams who have learned through experience on such matters. Generally with new tubes you don't have to do a "burn in". They are run
