OK, I'm confused. I'm building an electronic bias switch and vacuum relay QSK into my SB-220, having finally been jarred out of procrastination by the failure of the changeover relay this past weeken

Pete, I built Rich's electronic bias for my SB-221 ten years ago, then recently rebuilt it after a powerful gassy tube arc destroyed a couple of components on it. I think it works very well (as does

Hi Pete, ' In a grounded grid PA, the output and input are in series. That is what reduces gain, because it adds heavy amounts of negative feedback. With so much negative feedback, there is very litt

? The ZSAC (zero signal anode current) matters more than the actual bias voltage. In a 3-500Z, IMD goes up rapidly with a ZSAC of less than 65mA, I like to use between 75 and 100mA, - If an electron

This is true, but if you place a high value resistor acrossed the switching transistor to allow about 5 ma or so of Idle current in standby and place a 10 to 25 ufd capacitor acrossed the switching t

bias I must admit that I've never thought it through very carefully before, but unless the bias is switched before the RF gets there, you must be effectively pulse modulating. This will give the usua

Being on this thread, why one can possibly need RF-actuated electronic bias switching ? Could it be in order to save some power dissipated by the final tubes, corresponding to the amount of idle curr

Hi Peter, Rich apparently does not exactly understand how auto-bias works in many cases. In the AL-80B and AL-800 series, auto-bias turns on hard with drive power as low as a few dozen milliwatts. Bu

First, RF bias switching does not cause problems when properly implemented. So that is a non-issue. Second, while Rich focuses on the electronic bias with empirical conclusions many rigs have horrid

So how much dissipation do you save? Assuming that you bias the PA off totally during receive, how much does the dissipation go down by reducing dissipation at the syllabic rate? Especially as the b

W8JI: The real problem is wasted power and heat. Letting the bias run in full-tilt on condition is like putting a 600-1000 watt space heater the room. Ok, let me see: 1500 out at 60% efficiency means
