- This morning, while tuning up my SB-220 on 15 meters, I did the flash-bang-bad smell number, followed by a sudden flare of white light from one of the 3-500Zs in my SB-220. As long-time readers may r

- Mistake # 1 Pete! GRIN... What is the condition of components at the grid and filament pins? Did u install Rich's stuff there also? Check for open resistors or shorted caps. If it is original, check

- Probably a gassy tube. Nearly all amplifier problems BLAMED on parasitics are simply gassy tubes. Replace the bad tube and repair the damage. Anything you do to the suppressor won't make a bit of di

- Ah yes, Rauchian Gas. It allegedly disappears during the trip between the tube socket and the high-pot tester on the bench. The price of the suppressor retrofit kit is $14.50. So, doing things to th

- Rich: Let's face it. Selling suppressor kits at $14.50 in a very limited market-demand environment isn't going to make anyone wealthy. A few years ago you were railroaded by a "lynch-mob," some of w

- I don't do it for the money, Paul, because I am already Rich. OTOH, the statement from one of the wannabe lynchers, uncleverly declaring himself to be one of our recognized experts in the amplifier

- IMO, there is no risk to the other tube. - To find out why the anode fuse resistor let go, one needs a high-potential tester. . Measure the leakage current between the anode and grid. At 8kV, with 0
