Maritime specifications required -31dB rel PEP or -25dB rel tone at the full output. A number of commercial HF rigs in the 100 watt class that I was involved with were rated at -28dB rel PEP: they we

It is interesting that in landline SSB, IMD was measured by loading the channel with a noise signal: this had a 'slot' in the spectrum with no noise in it, and the IMD was measured as the amount of n

Have you checked the actual resonant frequency? My understanding of the tuned choke filter is that it should be tuned slightly higher in frequency. This makes the circuit look like a very much bigger

If the plate circuit is tuned lower in frequency than the grid circuit, then it doesn't matter how much feedback capacity there is, the tube cannot oscillate. See Mr. Terman on the subject. Which is

Not necesarily. But you do need a well regulated screen supply, a 'stiff' bias supply that doesn't move with grid current (mine moves under 50millivolts), some RF NFB in the filament circuit, and abo
