It is plausible that the previous owner has changed from a doubler to full wave rectifier. From the Clipperton L manual, the anode voltages, at idle, are 2700V for the high and 1800V for the low. If

Yeah. That's probably more plausible than the rectifier rewire theory. 73, Alek. VK6APK RussKW6T Hi all, Just trying to diagnose a weak Clip L. Here's what I see; On CW, the Vp meter shows 700 volts.

Yes. The HV probe is the first thing. Then, change out those metering resistors as well, while you're at it. Make up the 3 megohms with a string of smaller value, appropriately rated resistors. It ma

I always thought, that for the loading capacitor, you just use the old "Power = V squared over R" formula. You know R is 50 Ohms, and you supposedly know the power, so you can work out the voltage fr
