Tom, I measured some 1N4005 diodes this morning and got numbers similar to yours. The current to the diodes was applied for only a few seconds so heating effects from the diode current were not fully

Jerry, I bought an Acom 1000 and have put 40,000 contacts on it. It still has the original tube with full output. I bought a spare tube but may never need it. I use the amp often in full QSK mode on

Just a small clarification: A 3 dB pad will increase the return loss byt 2*3dB = 6dB. A 2.0:1 SWR is equivalent to a reflection coefficient of .333 and a return loss of 9.542dB. Therefore it takes a

Jim, I read the article but didn't see where the 3 MOVs is major problem. The units I'm referring to are 120V/15A surge protectors with RF filtering. Give me a hint. 73, Larry, W0QE _________________

Caddock resistors are great www.caddock.com and are very good at high frequencies. The 100W ones come in TO-247 transistor type packages and are a resistance film fired onto a flat ceramic substrate.

Hi Ian & Carl, Actually given only 50 ohm and 75 ohm coax and not paralleling any coax you can match all resistive impedances between 50 and 112.5 (75*75/50) ohms. e.g. 50 ohms -- 29.3 deg. 75 ohm co
