1. [Amps] QSk with SB-200 (score: 184)

Look at http://www.somis.org/QSK922.html http://www.somis.org/HSSw.GIF I've used this circuit successfully with several amplifiers, homebrew and commercial. Rich measures sells a kit of parts and you

RG58 will be fine, but make sure the connectors are installed properly (this goes for any type of coax, of course). As a matter of course I always recommend shielding control circuits and using shiel

Author: vic at rakefet.com (Vic Rosenthal)

The limitation in this case is current, not voltage breakdown, so the duty cycle is relevant. I believe the 600 watt limit refers to 100 percent duty cycle, so assuming a CW duty cycle of 50 percent

Except that the suppressor grid on the 1625's is tied directly to the cathode internally (inside the tube base). This means that if you try to use an unmodified 1625 in a GG triode connection, you ha

5. [Amps] electronic switching (score: 184)
Author: vic at rakefet.com (Vic Rosenthal)
Date: Sun Jun 22 09:30:18 2003
If you have a rig with decent QSK it can be great. Unfortunately, almost all modern transceivers have terrible QSK. The TS850s, for example, sounds wonderful when testing into a dummy load, but when

Author: vic at rakefet.com (Vic Rosenthal)
Date: Wed Jun 25 09:24:47 2003
I maintain that there would be a much greater degree of QSK usage if it were implemented properly in the transceiver. Since it's usually a tradeoff between QSK and comfort, it's only used when absolu

7. [Amps] re Reduction of 50hz hum via metal plate (score: 184)
Author: vic at rakefet.com (Vic Rosenthal)
Date: Sat Jun 28 08:31:45 2003
Perhaps it stiffens the chassis, reducing the soundboard effect. Or increases the mass of that part of the chassis, causing a change in its resonant frequency. Since aluminium was specified, maybe th

8. [Amps] G-G Amplifiers With No Tuned Input. (score: 184)
Author: vic at rakefet.com (Vic Rosenthal)
Date: Wed May 7 08:21:32 2003
I think the simplest way to express this is just to say that the 'low pass' type of network has a low Q compared to the 'resonant' network. Vic K2VCO

I have for sale two Astron RS70 power supplies, 13.8v (adjustable +/- a volt or two) at 50a continuous/70a peak. They can be connected in parallel for 140a (they have sense inputs to make this possib

10. [Amps] Spectrial purity and tank configuration (score: 184)
Author: vic at rakefet.com (Vic Rosenthal)
Date: Sat May 24 09:58:20 2003
It would depend on the configuration of the tuner. An L-network with a series inductor or a pi-network tuner will provide some suppression of harmonics. A T-network, like the majority of commercial t

11. [Amps] 572B tubes replacements for 811A's (score: 184)
Author: vic at rakefet.com (Vic Rosenthal)
Date: Sat Apr 5 12:31:37 2003
It's that simple, but (in my opinion) pointless. The 572 will not produce any more output than the 811A unless you increase the plate voltage, which will have consequences for other amplifier compone

I can't give you a definitive answer about the sgc, but I can tell you that my experience with the Henry SS750HF (8 x 2sc2879) is that the output is very dependent on the impedance seen by the amplif

I am about to acquire an Alpha 86 which has some bandswitch damage. Can anyone comment on experiences replacing bandwitch wafers in this amplifier? I've checked with Alpha and parts are available. An

Actually, I already have. I've seen the results of the corona-caused breakdown that you refer to there. I repaired an SB-1000 with a burned 160-meter tune padder contact. This contact was connected t

It's just a smoothed brass washer about 3/16" in diameter that is slipped over the lead and the terminals of the switch contact before soldering. The point is to reduce the voltage gradient at that p

No, it's a CONDUCTIVE washer that spreads the charge out so it will be less likely to ionize air in the vivinity of a sharp point. Vic K2VCO

I think the AL80B is a decent amplifier design; I do not believe there is either an inrush or parasitic problem. And it may be the only game in town at this price point for a new amplifier. I suspect
