I've been running a GS35B for a year or so. Initially with B+ at 4KV I had the bias voltage set at 30V and an idle current of 200mA. The idle current has been slowly drifting up over time. Now it tak

Is that a real 50V at the tube or is there a leaky filter or other cap in the circuit? Or a solder joint in the filament choke, socket, etc adding resistance? Carl KM1H I've been running a GS35B for

I don't know much about the inside of tubes, but it seems to me that if the grid was getting smaller then it would take a large negative voltage to stop those electrons getting to the plate. The real

I opened and photographed a dead one a while ago. The pictures are here: http://gs35b.com/gs35b/bang.html Would the drift happen if a tiny bit of cathode material evaporated and migrated to the grid?

Nice clear photos. What would have made that happen? And how to best avoid it from happening to... lets say, my amp? Gary KA1J -- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast! Antivirus

The tube was one offered to me for the cost of postage, I don't know its history. It showed no signs of life and high hipot leakage so I opened it up. I think the photos were taken with my first digi
