- Hello all Trying to decide between a "Pi" and a "Tee" input circuit, for a 50Mhz single 3-400Z amp. (formerly AL-80A with 3-400Z and not the 3-500Z). Any thoughts please? Thanks in advance, Isaac, 4Z

- Pi as it allows a more efficient match as well as a lower Q for a no tune 400-500kHz bandwidth. Carl KM1H _______________________________________________ Amps mailing list Amps@contesting.com http://

- Hi Carl, Thanks. I thought a "Tee" would be easy to tune outside the amp in real time (one cap), and would basically achieve the same result as the "Pi". Someone elsewhere mentioned better harmonic t

- Ive used the T on a few conversions such as when I drove a low impedance such as a 3 hole Alpha 76. The Pi is more forgiving when going from Eimac to Chinese 3-500's as an example I also use a T on t

- We generally think of PI networks as "low pass" and Tee networks as "high pass" but there are PI networks and Tee networks of both "low pass" and "high pass" topologies. A low pass PI network (CLC) a

- With that being said, a T network works well with one adjustment on the input. I use one on my 6 meter amp. Remember, you still have that amplifier tube that is going to generate its own distortion.

- I believe Swan/Cubic in the 1500Z model amp used a "T" input network vs a "pi". Not too many of these were made and are somewhat rare on the used market. I had one for a short time about 15 years ago
