No I said that if you were going to use a choke that it should be a tuned choke. There is no way that you will get good dynamic regulation with a regular choke or a swinging choke in an SSB power su

I would suggest that you might want to read some of the modern stuff on power supplies but if you have no interest and feel it is a waste of time then this discussion is pointless. 73 Gary K4FMX ___

Check the meter shunt. Hook a known good meter in series with the plate current meter circuit to see if they read the same. Keep your fingers out of the high voltage. 73 Gary K4FMX __________________

Hi Paul, I was always under the impression that the 8877 should have the filament tied to the cathode in the amp as there is little tolerance in the voltage that the tube can withstand between cathod

The other problem with it is you can't run the plates in push pull and drive the common cathode as it will cancel the output. You would need to run the plates in parallel but then there is the proble

It would be a good idea but as I understand that tuner was an L network tuner and not a pi network. Not good for a tuned input as there is no capacitor placed across the cathode with that type tuner.

The "four in line" was four 1625s mounted in line that were grid driven in push pull parallel arrangement. Each side of the push pull circuit had two tubes in parallel. Getting old when you remember

If you ran a drill thru the bolt holes you probably created a short from plate to plate in doing so. 73 Gary K4FMX _______________________________________________ Amps mailing list Amps@contesting.co

Scott, Just ohms law: first you need to find the current thru the whole divider between B+ and ground. E/R = I In this case 10 meg + 50K. So then, 2350/10050000 = .00023 amps. Then use IxR = V to fin
