Joe -- Since 3-500Zs do not have an indirectly-heated cathode, the only issue about overdriving them is non-linearity. R L MEASURES, AG6K. 805-386-3734 r@somis.org ___________________________________

With respect to Tom's first paragraph above: I still have the SB-220 I built more than a quarter of a century ago. I think I've replaced a grand total of one tube in all that time, despite pounding i

IMO, comparing current flow through semi-conductors and tubes is not wise. Solid state devices can avalanche while metal in a vacuum has no such characteristic that I am aware of. I think this is why

In mechanical engineering, they usually refer to this as a "design rule". For example, light aircraft are typically designed to withstand 3.8 positive Gs (in the Normal category). But, you wouldn't b

In this litigious society, you can't do anything to positively avoid lawsuits except to close up shop. I don't know if Ameritron has a letter from Eimac or not. That's really immaterial. Bill Coleman

Pulsed measurements. BTW, if you do the math -> 4000 volts x 400mA = 1600 watts input power. At 70% efficiency, that's ~500 watts plate dissipation, so there's some consistency between the numbers. I

Bill, They can be used on up in current, say for pulse circuits and RF heating. The 400 mA is the maximum plate current at single tone for minimum distortion. That's for 600 watts PEP useful power ea

Indeed. In pulse service they will do more than that. No one claimed that it wouldn't do more, the rub is that it isn't very linear above 420mA avg or 1,25a-pk. From what I've seen, a 3-500 can do c.
