to check on a supposition............ It appears possible that the sudden application of voltage to a tube filament causes degradation of the filament. What seems to happen? Is it possible that the v

There are others on here who can probably explain this better than I, but... This is typically a problem with filaments that draw a lot of current. At turn on the resistance is a fraction of that onc

Myth Busters did an experiment with light bulbs to see how they were affected by switching some on and off and others left on. Practically no difference. I believe this mostly started with light bulb

Amen to that. There seems to be more belief of myths recently in the ham field than before and I suspect a good part is from AG6K's absolute pathetic nomsense that is read by the totally uninformed a

Well, I'll chime in on this one with personal experience. Regardless of whether you believe in the "Myths" or not. Most are not supported with facts. I have a Clipperton-L purchased new in 1980. It i

It is the Impedance that controls things Jim. A properly designed transformer will supply its rated voltage AND rated current when its connected to a "matched load" Its no different than a transmitte

Didn't know that. I always figured the AL-80s were simply over driven so the Ip went way over 400 ma. I have heard of owners having to get a new tube every 3 years or so. What is the stock fil. v.? t

The mechanical expansion of a cold filament is the function that weakens them. I suppose this means molecular level... Some examples: As Jim Thompson said, thoriated tungsten cold R is much lower tha

Thats fine John but very few of us are running tubes with 5-7 figures of plate dissipation! Those that do can go to the CB forums for Care and Feeding data! Carl KM1H ________________________________
