Howdy all, Just wanted to let everyone know how simple an MFJ-259 makes tuning matching circuits. It's like child's play. Last night I did the input circuits for my amp. I simulated the impedance of

Ha! Ha! No idea! Kind of hard to get a couple resistors and a cap to ground to transmit 1500 Watts! Actually, the cool thing was that the L & C values I calculated were very close to the real world

Just that it's fine if your assumptions on input impedance are correct. If they aren't, then you're no better off using the MFJ than any other method. So the question comes down to this: Having set

Well, I'd agree. My assumption on input impedance is based on the average driving impedance of a grounded-grid 4-1000A. This is about 110 Ohms. The input capacitance for the 4-1000A is about 27 pF.

OK for all of you who doubt it then. What other assumption can one make? The tube is spec'd for an "average" driving impedance of 110 Ohms with an input capacitance of 27 pF. Last time I looked, Ohm

Agreed. However, even a diode has an equivalent "impedance." Yes, it is one that varies with drive, but it is an impedance none the less and still has an "average" value over the drive cycle. That's

Theoretically, yes. However, interfacing the MFJ-259 or any other impedance measuring device to the cathode pins is a challenge and error will be introduced there. Rather, one could set the impedanc
