That's a definite yes, yes, and yes...but... Many times the tuner is unnecessary with the old tube amps on some bands, maybe most of the bands they can operate on. Some tuners will give you more rang

It's been my approach that other than a minimum for each tube, the timing is unimportant. IOW if the tube needs 300 ms, anything longer than that within reason such as 3, or 4, or 5 seconds shouldn'

This would work IF you were limited only by plate dissipation, but in reality there are other factors such as cathode emission, grid dissipation, and secondary emission. With most tubes you are still

For SSB duty factor should vary with voice characteristics. I would guess that there would be at least a 2:1 variance or more at the extremes, maybe more. My voice which is a bit on the coarse side h

How about water cooling? That will greatly increase the plate dissipation capability, but how far can you go before cathode emission becomes the limiting factor, or secondary emission? 73 Roger (K8RI

It's been discussed on here before. From a practical approach I think you will find the differences on HF to be slight. Possibly on 10 a bit more, but with the large diameter tube and strap used ...T

What I typically see is 1/4 to 3/8" tube or 1/2 to 5/8" wide copper strap maybe 1/16" thick. Take a look at one of the old B&W 850A tank coil units. You should be able to find a photo of one some whe
