What do you mean by "160m amp using the 3x3 "? What is a "3x3"? 73 Peter G3RZP _______________________________________________ Amps mailing list Amps@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailma
3X3 = 3CX3000A7, 4X5 = 4CX5000*, 4X1 = 4-1000A, 4X3 = 4CX3000A. The correct Pronunciation is Three By Three. Little tubes are referred to like "a couple three fives" 35 = 3-500Z's. But mostly are ign
What if the tube in question is a 4CX1000 and not a 4-1000? Why not just spell it out like most of the world is used to seeing rather than trying to be cryptic or do short hand. More letters from the
I thought a 3x3 was a piece of lumber that used to measure 3" x 3" but nowadays is probably 2-1/2 x 2-1/2 or less (inflation).-WB2WIK/6 What if the tube in question is a 4CX1000 and not a 4-1000? Why
HA, because in the "Old Days" there wasn't keyboards in radio shacks, the words "Three By Three" or "MOJO" came out of your mouth and not a keyboard. Even after working in the computer world for a zi
Hey Bob, You're a good man. I'm with you on this one. It took the 'guys of old' to get the 'guys of new' where they are today (technically). Please forgive 'those of new' of their attitudes toward 't
Sounds like CB jargon to me. In my 45 years I never heard hams use terms like that. I guess I have a three-by-two hundred sitting in my basement. 73 Bill wa4lav ______________________________________
All I can say is that if you've been around long enough you can figure out lots of things. I've been around in the ham community since 1979 and there's a great variance in terminology. It's easy to d
Like Bill I have been in the game in excess of 45 years, I am not exactly ignorant of high power tubes and amplifiers, and haven't heard this stuff until recently. Being on a list that is supposed to
FYI Hams have been calling 3CX3000's 3 by 3's since the 60's or 70's. 4 by 5's and 4 by 1's (for 4-1000A's) are both common terms also. 73 Tom _______________________________________________ Amps ma
3x200? Now you aren't allowed to BS us Bill, that's rude. Eimac has Built 150's and then jumped to 8972's in triodes. They also have a problem in tetrodes they go from 100's to 250's bypassing the 20
Hey Gary no problem. You wanna really get confused Tom and I will start spewing RACECAR Jargon intermixed with the radio stuff. That point it could take "THE" book to decipher. Here's a term that wor
I just know there's sumthin cryptic in there. 73 Gary K4FMX _______________________________________________ Amps mailing list Amps@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/amps

Sorry, but this stuff is just so much slang. I've also been a ham since '64 and I've been keeping broadcast transmitters on-air since '74 and I've never heard or seen the phrase 3 by 3 or 4 by 5 used
