I would also be very interested in SPICE models for triodes and tetrodes used in larger amateur amplifiers. I'm no SPICE expert and have limited time, but would contribute in some way if I could. 73,

And then there's the question of who works on all that complexity, and supports it in the long term? Amateur amplifier suppliers come and go. I think it's fair to say *most* amateurs aren't qualified

The TenTec L-network design is interesting and has lower losses than most, but when I called them about it they wouldn't stand behind QRO AM/CW/digital operation on 160M even with a 50-ohm resistive

I'm getting around to servicing the blower (again) in my very last complete Alpha PA77, and decided that since I'll have the side off I might as well add the toroid and caps to put it on 160m. Note i

That might be the right question. Starting at the supply end on the 77Dx: From the 15uH molded choke, there's .002uF to ground. At the junction of the 15uH and 90uH chokes, there's .005 total to grou

And just so it's in the archives: The components for adding 160m to the original Alpha 77, PA-77, "D" and "S" models are are below. (apparently ETO built "D" and "S" models that did not have 160m, be

Spot on, Jim. The 76A and the 78 suffer from both vibration and turbulence, with the effects compounded by resonances in the sheet metal cover. Better blower mounting and fuzz would help a lot, a sca

I'd hate to warp the cover MIG welding, but then I'm no welder at all - just guessing. Also - just read your last... Angle stock would be stronger, but we're trying to dampen resonance. my seat-of-th

Good results. Assuming the blower is running in balance, freshening the rubber baby buggy bumpers it mounts on might help some more with the vibration. Turbulence is tougher. Apple has been working o
