Same tubes, as far as I'm aware. I imagine that if you buy enough of them and the manufacturer will put your name/logo on them. 73, Alek. VK6APK On 26/11/2016 9:43 AM, Dick NY1E wrote: I need a pair

If its simple to disconnect all the wires on T1, then a megger will tell you if it is sick. Check between windings and frame, etc. Solid state ones are cheap as chips on ebay and hand wound ones are

At 244V, the filament voltage will still be around 6.8v. You'll still need that resistance. I've done a million 2100 series amps with a ser5ies/parallel combination of low value 5W wirewound resistor

It could be something to do with your tuning procedure. On 6m with a SB-220 for example, the tuning procedure is a many step process of starting with the load cap, then tune cap, then load, then tune

Not much use, here in VK6. All you'll see for most of the time, on most bands, is a flat trace. We're far enough away from everybody else in the world, to be able to enjoy the spectrum to ourselves.

Correct. The overshoot, generates a DC voltage which holds the drive down for the next bit of the rf envelope. The overshoot has already passed out of the radio and through the amp. However, if you h

According to the curves, with 1kV on the anode, it only starts conducting when bias is less than 10V or so. At 0V, she'll run at about 200mA. Kill the bias and try it. 73, Alek VK6APK I have a VHF am
