Gentlemen, A previous post mentions a phenomenon wherein is written "parasitic oscillation" and what I deduce as filament sag. Is it possible that these two conditions are related? It is understood h

No. If you calculate the amount of magnetic force produced by current, you'll see that force for something the size of a filament helice is on the order of a few grams from a dozen amperes of curren

Hal, You raise a good point which could be extrapolated like this: Parasitic oscillation MAY be the cause for SOME grid-to-filament shorts. There has been equal number of situations where the applica

In random tests when an unknown intermittent problem occurs, no change at all can result in what people perceive as a cure. This why double blind tests are done. The random coincidence effect is why

Hal -- Parasitic suppressor resistors are normally paralleled by 60 to 100nH of L. Thus, to develop enough V across a suppressor to damage the resistor, VHF is required. After observing a number of c

I wouldn't know, I never owned one. However, the amp that we used the nichrome on was a HB 2 X 813 amp. Myself and my co-colaborator, got a 'ticket' from the FCC. It seems we were throwing VHF spurs

It is sad that in most cases of "fixes" reported here on the reflector, when a parasitic suppressor is replaced, no one measures the value of the old resistor compared to what its original value was.
