- This thread about arcing tune caps comes at an opertune time for me. Progress on the latest amp project here has slowed while I root around in the very bottom of the barrel for a tune cap. I was goin

- It seems to me that the actual piv across the Tune C is equal to the anode supply V minus the minimum anode/to/chassis-gnd V during the peak drive signal. For a 3-500Z or an 8877, this is about 250v

- I have often wondered why this list doesn't have a FAQ that the list-meister could publish once a month or so. All those who have opinions as to why an amp goes BANG could submit their standard answe

- This should be the case for a class B amp. Class AB would be a little less and class C a little more due to conduction angle and tank flywheel effect. Correct me if my thinking is off here. In any ca

- Only for linear amplifier service. For a. tetrode, the minimum anode voltage is close to the screen potential. For a pentode, roughly half of the screen potential. How did you arrive at the 2x figur

- I need to get a high-pot! Do you remember what the actual plate spacing was? Seems like a lot of padding to me. I did that with a 100 pf variable on 160 one time, wasn't real happy with the range of

- Thanks Carl, this is good stuff to know. My ARRL handbooks, from 1959 on, all agree on spacing specs with my E. F. Johnson catalog #964 (1937). My "Reference Data for Radio Engineers" (1977) says som
