381. Re: [Amps] High SWR (score: 1)

The only thing that high swr on a yagi should tell you is that the feed line does not match the driven element impedance perfectly. 73 Gary K4FMX _______________________________________________ Amps

It is quite easy to wind some transformers. I did a couple of filament transformers for a 4CX1000 some years ago. I used an old tv transformer where the primary winding was on the bottom, next to the

Well, no they are not the same. There is a difference in what we all call "grounded grid" and "cathode driven". With a tetrode in grounded grid mode you are driving the grid and the screen. In order

The 4CX250 actually can be run in AB2 as it can stand a couple of watts of grid dissipation. There are AB2 specs for that tube. The 4CX1000 is only rated for AB1 operation. Zero grid current, howeve

It is well known that a grounded grid amplifier places a varying load on its driver stage. It is recommended that the driver stage be heavily swamped to avoid such load variations. A driver stage dri

You misunderstand Bill. We are not talking about a tuned circuit at the input of the grounded grid amp. We are talking about what effects the varying load has on the driver. If the driving source ha

How much does it vary from band to band? The idea is the higher in frequency you go the lower the impedance is due to the capacitor. At lower frequencies the capacitor has higher impedance but the im
