I like the Rotron Spinnaker. DC power, so speed control is easy, it's small, reasonably quiet, reasonably priced ($50ish), bags of back pressure and capable of cooling a 8877. Steve _________________

A lot of the IR thermometers have a fixed emissivity setting which is wrong for glass (and maybe shiny metal). The simple fix is a patch of correction fluid like Tippex or Snopaque (?), which has pre

Assume that the resistor is a typo and it's meant to be 30R, not 30k - a reasonable value to give some rf nfb. The choke across it allows the dc and rf conditions to be controlled separately, without

The 8874 data sheet specifically mentions that "the internal construction.. ..is such that heat transfer to the tube base is minimised...". Free convection is sufficient cooling. The '250 is rather d

Allowances for much higher peak current with capacitor input - the high peaks result in higher rms current, which is the value you need to use when looking at the heating effects. Many people use (sq

rms applies to any waveform - if the voltage/current are sinusoidal, then the 1.414 or .7071 factors apply. Where the waveform is a series of short peaks, then there isn't a simple numerical factor t

I agree these are the ranges of figures that 'drop out' most often - but I'd caution against automatically assuming that they cover every instance. In the last case, if you have 1.9 instead of an ass

A pedantic comment, highlighted in Conrad's reply. The output impedance of the tube isn't of major importance here. It's the load impedance presented to it that matters. The two are not the same. Ste
