Ive salvaged several power tubes using 120VAC and a 200W light bulb in series as a current limiter. A bigger bulb would be better but I used what I have. Carl KM1H ___________________________________

That makes sense.  There doesn't appear to be any shorts between filament and grid or plate.   It might also make sense to put a shorting bar on the filament pins as well as the grid.   I suppose it

I have a GU-78B that has developed a grid short. I have determined the grid short initiates about 2 minutes after power on and ends after about 5 minutes. I have tried unsuccessfully to 'burn' the sh

Hello Doug, you should talk to OM Power people to get the most comprehensive answer, based on their huge practical experience. They gave up long ago, and swithched to chinese FU-728F type, but still

Let's see if this e-mail goes through at Amps. It didn't go through at Ham_Amplifiers. Jim, I am not sure what to try next. Others have said not to use a 12v car battery for this tube. So I am at a p

I am the "proud" owner of two Alpha 3CX800's with grid-cathode shorts that start 2 minutes into warm up. I would be thrilled if they cleared themselves after 6 minutes of warm up. 73, Steve, N2IC Jim

Hi Ron, I tried a magnet on some old 811A broken internal electrode parts including the grid basket and they stick to the magnet....so there might well be scope for correcting the electrode misalignm
