- Has anyone tried tapping off of the B+ via a dropping resistor to provide screen voltage to a tetrode? If you only need a 100ma or less wouldn't this work? With acceptable E regulation? Any comments

- That is the acceptable way of doing it Lane since then if the HV fails the screen supply goes away also. Using a seperate screen supply without full protection circuitry is asking for trouble. The 4-

- Sure. A dropping R and a zener string shunt screen-regulator is preferred for smallish AB1 amplifiers with minimal screen current requirements. regulation? Yes. However, if the anode supply was 9kV

- Hi Lane I have seen this technique discussed and used for some low power transmitters. 100 ma is a lot to do this with (depending on the voltage drop you need). For example, 2KV at 100 ma is quite a

- This is commonly done. An example is the screen supply in the AM-6155 amplifier. It has the advantage that the screen supply drops with the anode supply in a fault condition. A disadvantage is the po

- Yes, it's a common technique - it can be very power-hungry (work out the wattage of the dropper resistor) but it does have the advantage that screen voltage is automatically removed if the B+ fails.
