In terms of damaging the actual gate with overdrive, I think there's no meaningful time limit, it's all but instantaneous if it happens. For the whole device in overload, it depends on the circumstan

The MB-1 quotes its performance compared with a Mini Circuits USB power sensor, which itself quotes an uncertainty of up to 7% in power reading. Typically it will be better than that, but 7% is the o

There's a single 3CX800 design in the '93 handbook I have (by W1QWJ). Is it likely to be the some one? Any particular features about it? Steve Can anyone help me obtain a copy of the the 3CX800 6m am

I made a homebrew socket that way many years ago. I'm fairly sure the pin size was 1.0mm. I got some sockets which were open both ends so the exact length wasn't important. I'll try to find the lefto

Some years ago I measured some valves, including 3CX800. I don't think I have kept the results but the general result was that the C was about twice the data sheet value, and wasn't changed by the me

A triggering circuit such as shown on p4 of: www.qsl.net/g3uvr/4cx250/G4AJW-psu.pdf could do the job. Multiple secondary windings could feed stacked thyristors so no added PSU needed, and an extra on

I think the formula you've used for impedance is for a circular coaxial line. In the amp, the metalwork forming the 'outer' is a rectangle, so much of it is spaced further away from the pipe meaning

There's no actual need for a CT on the heater transformer winding on an indirectly heated tube. If you connect the cathode to one side of the heater, you certainly don't want to ground the CT on the

I think 213 will take that easily. It was a while ago, but I'm sure that I couldn't detect any leakage on 213 with my tester maxed out at 16kV. A local 'maker' group used it to repair a 35kV lead on

I think the GI7 is indirectly heated with a cathode, like 8877. If there's no coupling cap between the cathode and filaments, it shouldn't need a big heavy duty filament choke like you need with 3-50

From what you describe I think the anode load resistance at the tube is too low. That is not necessarily linked to the Q of the matching network. There are calculators online which will help you calc

GS35B, 8877 and the like have separate cathode - they don't need a CT for the B- return. DC switcher supplies work just fine as long as they go into constant current rather than tripping out on overl

DC switch mode PSU is not good with directly heated valves such as 3CX3000, 3-500Z etc. One end of the filament ends up with different bias to the other so all the emission happens at one end. It mig
