>The pages are reproduced without technical comment, as historical

>The 10-page article from April 1961 includes theory of operation that
>was not included in the later shortened versions. There is also an
>Appendix about use of the circuit with tubes such as the 4X150A that can
>run negative screen current.

>The idea is older than we might think. G2DAF was granted British Patent
>No 926091 in 1961, so the original work must have been done in the mid
>to late 1950s. Permission was granted for radio amateurs to construct
>the amplifier for individual use.

>The RSGB Museum still has G2DAF's original 'test-bed' amplifier - and
>also his notes and files! When I can, I'll take a look...
