I have cleverly filed my Clipperton-L doc. I am hoping someone can help. The parasitic suppressor resistors have broken. I believe they are 100 ohm 2W composition. Can anyone confirm the value? I am
G'day Larry, At the risk of offending the masses, don't worry what value they are. Just go to http://www.somis.org and scroll down to <http://www.somis.org/Price-Info.html>Price List--Information She
Hi Larry, Yes, indeed they are 100 ohm, 2W, carbon composition. Carbon composition resistors are hard to find. Ceramic composition resistors are a good substitute. I just ordered some myself from Mou
No offense Alek but the masses on here dont believe in voodo science as they do on the forum you just arrived from. You might want to search the archives on the subject. Larry, for a real suppressor

I am reminded of an exchange between Neils Bohr and a friend. The friend had just discovered a horseshoe nailed above Bohr's door and asked why it was there. "It's supposed to bring good luck", said
The existing units are about 0.25 inches (maybe 0.3125) on center from the tube envelope. I am not sure how hot the tube envelope gets offhand but it can't be that good for the resistor. I bought the
Ha ha. No offense taken Carl. You won't offend me in a hurry. Number 1, I'm married. Number 2, I live by the principle that if you strike a match, then don't cry to mummy (you say mommy) that the fir
I may have tried it WARC bands at some point but that would have been long ago. I do not currently have any WARC band antennas. My Clipperton-L also has an added tuned input board which does not incl
No, I can't. My experience is limited to about 10 Yaesu amps, 3 x SB-220, and a couple of home brew models (3-500Z and 4-1000A). Agreed. I've worked on 3 AL-811 amps and that is one area that did no
Lots of things work Alek, there are enough poorly designed amps on the market that prove that. I prefer to attack the problem; and not the symptom and lose a few hundred watts on 10M to heat. It also

Negatives are often difficult to prove, however the question should be, "can any one prove they add anything in the way of protection over the standard arrangement"? 73 Roger (K8RI) _________________
It's been a long time since I worked on the Cliperton Ls but as I recall you just remove the tubes and the bottom ones should be easy to get at. The most common problem I worked on was a shorted coax
Sorry, Carl, that isn't correct: Measures was not banned for his theories (wrong and tiresome though they were). He was actually banned for bad *behavior*, which was tolerated far longer on AMPS than
