1. [Amps] QRO HF2000 tank coil Q question (score: 1)

Wondering if anyone can provide the specs on the low band tank coil for a QRO HF2000. It appears to be a stack of two red-mix T225A-2 iron powder toroids, with a total of 25 turns, and taps for 40M a

I used stacks of T225-2 for a mobile antenna loading coil on 40m. Measured Q was around 400. Toroid coils with taps, which no good idea anyway, will have much lower Q. As part of a pi network for 160

Thanks Peter. I calculate a Q of 7 to 8 for the stock design mentioned in the previous email. There are still a fair number of these amps in use, I wondered if others had similar experience. I consid

Hi John, With the Q of 7 to 8 you probably mean the pi network Q. That is not the Q of the particular coil but that of the circuit, calculated by tube Ra/Xc of anode capacitor. Higher Q will produce

I recommend an open coil type. Especially on 40 and 80. I tried torids in my 8877 amp and had the 160 meter unit overheat and start to smoke when on 10 meters! Yes, the 160 meter Pi torid over heated

Have you guys taken into consideration that the tank circuit in these amps only transform down to 200 ohms, not 50 ohms from the plate impedance?  After the tank circuit it passes through a 4 to 1 ba

Jim raises an issue which has troubled me lately, and that is whether the added expense and headaches required to build a bandswitched pi-L tank circuit is justified by the modest gain in harmonic at
