REPLY:
It is actually higher than that. When properly tuned and loaded, the peak RF
voltage at the plate swings from the DC supply voltage to near-ground on one
half the RF cycle and then to approximately double the DC plate voltage on the
other half. The factor of .7 is too low. It should be closer to 1.0.
