Author: Rick Stealey <rstealey@hotmail.com>

If your amp used to be stable why do you think it would suddenly start arcing, or go into parasitic osc.? It IS possible the resistors in the parasitic chokes changed value, and that should be easy t

Greg, You are really on to something here, very interesting. Your message is very timely because I am working on just that same scenario in my homebrew amp. So far I have measured the vacuum antenna

I had a couple emails from guys asking about how I measured the switching times in the amp and exciter. All relay measurements in amp are made with no filament voltage and no high voltage. No excepti

There are a lot of questions on the reflector similar to this one. Usually the advice given is to check the bandswitch, relay, padding caps and measure the swr on the input circuit to be sure you are

Usually so, Yes. I made mine 3 seconds, because it is so cool to hit the switch on the amp and see the "NO HV" warning light go out, then 3 seconds later hear that thump as the relay closes. _______

One way is to hook up like the other guys are saying, but also put a directional coupler in series with the tracking generator. Any reflected power will show up in the coupled port, where you attach

The question is, do winding resistance, No. Just think about it, the variac is good for 5 amps continuous. That's over 500 watts. If your 220 transformer was drawing 500 watts you'd notice the heat.

Vic, I think if it is an HF oscillation the plate tank components will have a large effect on it, whereas if it is a parasitic they won't. In fact, if it is an HF osc you can probably stop it entirel
