The idea of slowly raising the voltage on a tube filament upon "turn on" remains a disputed area (to do or not to do, that is the question). Check out what a new 3CX-3000A7 or 6000A7, etc cost.... an

I was thinking about this last night. AC is hard to regulate. Has anybody thought of running filaments off DC? DC is easy to regulate. Cheap switching power supplies can deliver large amounts of effi

I've known plenty of people use ex-computer 5V DC switch mode supplies for the heaters on oxide cathode tubes like 4CX250Bs (G6ABU used them for years in his 2 metre contest amps) - probably because

CL type Thermistors are fine as long as they are run within their MINIMUM and MAXIMUM current ratings. Choose wisely. Carl _______________________________________________ Amps mailing list Amps@conte

Some large power tetrodes and triodes require DC due to the risk of vibration of the large filaments at 120 Hz. AC filaments are pleasant to deal with as usually a center tap on the filament transfor

** OK, as long as it doesn't have to be sine-wave AC, it's easy. Guess square waves are OK... How about the PWM output off a PIC? - Jerry _______________________________________________ Amps mailing
