That may have been the original intention, but other cooling methods may work as well. The "external anode" tubes have an interesting history as regards air cooling. Eimac developed the SK-600 air sy

If most of us can't measure our harmonic output levels, that is a strong argument for amateurs to design their transmitters to minimize them. A Pi-L network will have better harmonic suppression than

Nothing? Tubes are typically pumped down to about 1E-8mmHg, which means that the "vacuum" space of an amateur-sized transmitting tube will contain well over a million free gas molecules. -- 73 from I

The real problem is that ALC is badly misused. In a typical transceiver, the ALC loop is used for: 1. Power output control, typically from 100W down to <5W 2. Compensating for band-to-band variations

In theory... but those active contesters aren't going to be doing all that keying by hand. The computer will be doing the bulk of it, and QSK is no help there. Most people wouldn't dream of trying to

I've handled that particular broken tube, and looked at it carefully with a magnifying glass. The photograph was taken by PA3CSG, who once sold a few HB GS-35B amps for 2m and 70cm. The tube was retu

We're certainly a long way from all transceivers and all amps being automatically plug-and-play to give full QSK; but many of the problems can be overcome by simple modifications at the interface. Us

It all depends how much character distortion you're prepared to tolerate, given that one dot at 50wpm is 30ms long. Many transceivers cannot do full QSK at anywhere near 50wpm either. This puts the s

Yes, it can be done. To keep the two sets of grid and anode current meter from interacting, each board needs a large diode in the HV-minus connection (another GI750) with the cathodes commoned to the

An 813 only has 125W dissipation, so by today's standards they are small tubes. You'd need four to equal a single 3-500Z, which will glow just as nicely. A pair would be struggling to reach even the

I don't dispute the raw output figures, or the ruggedness either; but you didn't address my point about "clean, linear output". How do the IMD levels at 600W output compare with a 3-500Z? -- 73 from
