I concur with this 100%. Each of my GS35bs had a variable transformer on the primary side of the filament transformer and it has a profound effect on performance. I use test-points on my Fluke to det

Mike, I bought 2 supposedly NOS GS35b tubes- they were toast, grids audible bouncing around when shook. I didn't have to do that to tell though- the USSR radar units used finger-stock to contact the

C connector, HN, or even RG214 with connectors will work fine (commercial TX often use RG214 for 8kv in the States). Otherwise buy a Millen connector & use HV cable- about $20-35 US on Ebay, but chea

The Orr Handbook 23rd Edition lists it as 120 ohms on page 15-18. I agree with Han-san, a Pi is best. Forget the "T". Dave N3DB _______________________________________________ Amps mailing list Amps@

Foating B- above chassis ground is necessary & sound practice. That said, you don't need to fear metering or otherwise called "float" resistors between B- and chassis ground, so long as they are acco

Thanks to all- found the issue(s). 1.) The cap bank, if not breaking down from carbon tracing at normal operating voltage, was probably close to doing so. 2.) The tranformer is shot- it reads 80k ohm

My turn to kick the ball- comparing the 8877 to a GS35b is like apples vs oranges. The Russian tube has a mu of 13 vs 20 for the 8877. The tradeoff- durability & max QRG rating. Exceed the published
