I would replace the bulbs with LEDs. I second that. Being really fed up with replacing little glow bulbs, many of which are no longer available, I replace every one of them by a LED. To replace all t

Well, I got suggestions for three different tubes. All of them being directly heated glass bottles, which makes a lot of sense given my requirements. I don't think I will ever actually build that amp

you can be sure that tube life is adversely affected by frequent on/off cycles of the filament. Well, then it seems to be a bad idea to do so. Which puts tubes some more points behind solid state dev

Bill, I need a zener for my 2KD-3. It's a 1N4561. It appears that they are really hard to find and exorbitantly expensive when you do. Power zeners are very much out of fashion. They have a tendency

Larry, My suggestion is to save that Variac for better uses, and reduce your high voltage by removing a suitable number of turns from the HV transformer's secondary! Depending on the transformer's co

Al, I think you mean a different circuit than the one I meant. Just FYI, this circuit is called an emitter follower. Back in the early 70's, this was the "regulated" power supply of choice when I wor

Mike, the thermal conductivity of such a paste depends more on the granulometry of the solids in it, than on the actual material. Thermal compound is usually a mixture of finely ground thermally cond

Alex, I suspect that silver mica caps might not be the best option you have. Silver mica caps consist of mica sheets with an ultra thin layer of silver deposited on each side. This silver layer isn't

Steve, How do I calculate G2 voltage from the Anode voltage? Basically you decide at what input power level you will run the tube. Along with Anode voltage that gives you the anode current. In a sing

Don't forget the good old hot wire meters! As long as you have a good, accurate dummy load, that stays good throughout the frequency range of interest, all you need to measure RF power is a hot wire

Hi guys, it seems rather funny to me how you worry about rigs having only a -28dB specification for third IMD. Just come here to Chile, and listen in to the kind of signals that populate the 40 and 8

Repeatedly some of you have mentioned the supposed advantage of running a device at very much lower output power than its saturation level, to improve linearity. This is true only to a point, not all

Drax, Does it matter how much the voltage swings on the output of a RF power amplifier? It does. It's true that 1 millivolt at 1 milliampere is 1 microwatt, while 1 volt at 1 microampere is also 1 mi
