Specifically, is it necessary to limit inrush current at turn-on in a 8877 tube? If some filaments do not require current limiting, what is the characteristic of a filament which requires limiting th

In one word, no. When cold, Oxide-cathode heaters have much higher resistance than do thoriated tungsten filaments. Eimac says to limit 3-500Z/8008 inrush current to no more than double the normal c

There are those who will defend until death that since Eimac does not specify the need for inrush current limiting that it is not required. Most tubes are in commercial service and are not turned on

Eimac specifies inrush limiting for a number of tubes. The 8973 is one of them. The 8877 is not. - Rich..., 805.386.3734, www.vcnet.com/measures. end -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.contesting.com/ampsfaq

What about turning down the voltage, like to half for moderate standby times (dinner). I remember reading something in some broadcast book about the standby transmitter filaments being switched to ha

Some time ago I happened to own a Swedish Radio marine transmitter running 2 x QB4/1100 tubes where the filament voltage was lowered to approx. half in the stand by position. So this approach seems t

This approach work ok for filament-type cathodes. For heater-type cathodes, it sounds risky to me. - later, Harald - Rich..., 805.386.3734, www.vcnet.com/measures. end -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.cont

To: <amps@contesting.com> somesuch. I can see that this happens if you draw current from a cathode that's too cold, but does it do any damage in standby? Steve -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.contesting.co
