Thanks Peter for the interest and the tips

I am working on it and I hope to have a solution on it..
Thomas give me some tips witch I use now to make some pre eliminary
measurements to see what happen and what is wrong on it..!!!
About the C1-C2 capacitor pF-values it is not easy for higher bands we need
small values and for the lower bands we need big pF-values.
I now about padders for different band covering,but this needs a ceramic
bandswitch with at least 3 wafers
1 wafer for C1 pads
1 wafer for the coil himself
1 wafer for the C2 pads
Not easy to find,and when you find one it is mostly bigger than my whole PA
stage and costs a lot..
Maby you have a big personal stock,so you can help my further on that
particular way hi hi,little joke Peter..
You now what I mean it is not easy at all,surely not in Belgium to find
something usable for that use, and with dimensions I can bild in ...!!
I am working around,I hope I can find the solution for what I have for the
moment,especially for the higher bands.
I already put some more coils into also.
I hope it is also a solution,because I was starting with a
correctPI-calculation with give me a solution with very small turn
values,but this seems to be praticly not realisable,or a big fault.
Maby possible when you have no stray and so on and so on !!!

Regards Jean.

> Hi Jean-Pierre,

> The output Z for 2 GS-35b will be about 850-900 Ohms at 3KV 2A.
> You can?t drive the tube to an anode voltage of 0V, so you may only use 
> the
> voltage swing for your calculation.
> The mode will be AB2 and that means a K of 1.6.
> As Thomas mentioned you will need capacitors with very low C min, so 
> better
> use small capacitors and add padders for the lower band.
> For optimum Q and shortest leads to the band switch you will need 3 or 4
> coils.
> The arrangement of tank components is quite critical, construct for 
> shortest
> possible lead length.
> 3 tube amps with 3xGS31 and 3xQB5/1750 have been built successfully with
> almost same power and efficiency on all bands.
> Probably you will need to use vacuum variables for small Cmin and high
> circulating currents anyway, so you will be better off to mount them
> vertically, which gives you less stray capacity.
