Many of us didn't. I'm sort of an amateur historian and I love to read old QST's from the 30's and 40's. Every couple of months there was a note about some guy going to the big pileup in the sky as a

I replaced the choke in mine with one purchased from Ameritron <http://www.ameritron.com>. It works fine on all bands 160-10, including WARC. Cost about $25. The AL80B choke is the one to ask for. I

184. [AMPS] Power Meter Readings Question (score: 1)
Author: rakefet@rakefet.com (Vic Rosenthal)
Date: Wed, 28 Apr 1999 07:59:21 -0700
First of all, most power meters are very inaccurate when the SWR gets above 2 to 1. Secondly, an SWR of 2 to 1 means that the antenna impedance is either half or twice that of the line. This mismatch

Author: rakefet@rakefet.com (Vic Rosenthal)
Date: Fri, 12 Mar 1999 07:24:05 -0800
First of all, be sure you are shorting the choke when you test it. You are looking for series resonances, and shorting converts them into parallel resonances which the dip meter can detect. Second, y

I thought about this. My investigations so far haven't lead me to any cheap ones. They may be out there, but the prices I've seen so far have been quite high. Unfortunately, I can't ask for a guarant

I've gotten some quotes on tubes. The best price so far on tested, guaranteed medical-pull 8877's is $270 (yes, I've used the telephone). A pair of Eimac 3-500Z's, also medical pulls, is $150. Both t

OK, I'm planning the 3000v supply for my 2 x 3-500Z amplifier. I am going to use a FW doubler, like the SB-220, with a string of 8 capacitors. Looking at the Mouser catalog, they have Mallory CGS, 21

Probably time for fundamental frequency neutralizing stuff. Use a GDO as an absorbtion wavemeter to find out, with reduced plate v so as not to damage the tubes. 73, Vic, K2VCO Fresno CA -- FAQ on WW

Right. The T-network is very popular because it easy to match a wide range of impedances with practical components, but it is a highpass filter. I have been successfully using an old Johnson 275-watt
