Rich had the right basic idea, but he neglected the fundamental current flowing through the capacitor that transfers energy to the tank. Since his method also ignores harmonics and phase shift, I'm n

That turns out to be frighteningly high on 10 metres - take say 3000v pk and 20pF, that's over 10 amps peak. I must admit that I've never actually thought about that. As far as phase shift at the fun

Too right, Rich. SSB lets you get away with a lot of sins - like electrolytics with low ripple current ratings, transformers without much iron and current densities of 2000 amps/sq inch and more, pa

Peter sez: The phase shift could be an issue on ten meters, where series L and shunt C forms a delay line. It might then be advisable to add a slight safety factor to the estimated current. Say funda

If you have 1500 watts leaving the tank to the load, you MUST have 1500 watts or MORE entering the tank. If the anode swing is 3000 volts RMS, you MUST have at least one half ampere ampere of RMS cu

Is this strictly correct, since we can see that a major part of the current through the blocking cap at the higher frequencies is caused by the current through the plate - ground capacity? 73 Peter G

Let's look at only 14pF total capacitance at the anode side of the blocking cap, 3000 ohms load resistance at the anode end of the tank, and 3000 volts RMS. Doing it the incorrect way Rich suggested
