1. [Amps] Burn-in for Eimac? (score: 1)

Some of the Russian tubes require a burn-in period after years of storage to de-gas the vacuum. I've never heard of this applied to Eimac tubes, but should it be? In other words, is it a good idea fo

Debates will rage over whether it's necessary, but I can't see how it can do any harm. My first reaction is to think it's ready to go - but it's been cold for 8 years. I don't know if there's a risk

That was my first reaction too. If you've hi-potted it and *measured* the leakage current, you have a lot more information than any date code could provide. Well there's a little project for you, Bil

Also, tossing salt over one's shoulder and knocking on wood couldn't hurt before firing up a tube that's been in storage. Richard L. Measures, AG6K, 805.386.3734. www.somis.org ______________________

So this old wives' tale is still kickin' around 40+ years after I heard it the first time?... producing "harmonics"?... only if you're an amoeba... In reality, this activity would create heterodynes.

If I understand the physics correctly, the zirconium getter simply dissolves and binds the gas molecules in its own molecule structure. An interesting treatment of getters in general can be found in
