I saw you mention K5PRO, Don, so I had to come out of my shell. I have watched the 10 kW homebrew videos too. Admirable work, makes me long for time to do modern tube-based amplifier construction at

You make a DL for the frequency that presents the designed load Z and can handle the power. Then you make as sure as possible that everything SHOULD work according to plan. Then you work out a kill s

One of the things I see that is different, as I have watched videos of the bigger transmitters firing up, is that they can bring the driver stages online, and have them drawing plate current, tune th

So, where does that drive power go while the driver(s) are being Drive power is relatively low and typically dissipated in the grid circuit of the succeeding stage. For example, the BTR1 (pair of 4-4

Here is a pretty good read on WLW before and during their 500kw period. The article states in part, that "WLW began broadcasting with 500KW around the clock, in May of 1934." https://www.neh.gov/huma

Having worked with really big transmitters; Telefunken 100 kW ISB and Thomson-CSF 500 kW carrier AM, tune-up works in very similar ways for all practical purposes. First the low-power drive stages ar
