321. Re: [Amps] Heat Dissapating 8877 HV Plate Caps (score: 1)

Just to emphasise a point here - the cap that covers the pinchoff is thin metal, with barely any contact onto the rest of the anode metalwork. The heatflow into/through it is negligible. It certainly

Something is allowing conduction between the anode and grid. Maybe gas inside the tube, maybe cathode material on the grid, maybe a short. Try following the instructions here: http://www.nd2x.net/tub

Sounds very much like rf is getting into things. I can't see how Z1/T17 are being damaged by dc in the circuit if the control input is a switch to ground as you show. I suggest you add 10nF disc cera

Maybe they don't any more. Last conversation I had with them, the amplifier products were not RoHS compliant which means it's illegal to sell them into the EU. Steve ________________________________

The cut off was 1st July 2006. Non compliant goods had to have been already sold or 'on the market' by that date. Items still in production don't count. The stupidity of the legislation means it appl

Yes, that's the number most manufacturers use - but - the starting point is typically 2000 hours of life at 105C ambient and maximum rated ripple simultaneously. If you come back (say) 20 degrees on

Another thought - buy a relatively cheap 28 or 48V switching supply second hand, and put your effort into building a solid state amp to go with it. Steve _____________________________________________

The orange is there - just not for long. Transistors have a bad reputation from their earlier ancestors. With simple protection they can be very rugged these days. Most of the time tubes look better.

It's important to take all the factors into consideration. There's some brands/designs of tube amps that have a poor reputation here, primarily because of design failings. In 31 years of solid state

I'd add to that list - in a multiband amp the tune C itself contributes vhf resonances because of physical size. I suspect it's the dominant factor. Steve ____________________________________________

I think they can do better linearity than that - the amps I built have all done so at 250-300W/tube. The STC data sheet for 4CX250B gives IMD figures under the typical operating conditions. At 2kV,

My driver ran around -55dBc IMD3 and I never tried to measure IMD5, it was off the screen. I use dBc to mean referenced to a single tone (assuming that's what you mean by 'method of testing'). Steve

It needn't be. If you stay simple, a dropper from the anode supply with an uncomplicated active shunt regulator costs about a pack of beer. Regulation is more than adequate. I begrudge wasting 30W as

There were no problems with the measurements, and I'm familiar with what Tom was saying. I've not seen any figures from Eimac giving IMD for 4CX250s - the data sheet I referenced was from STC, who ma
