Tnx, Steven -- This is the same kind of neutralizing circuit that both Gonset and Heath tried in their 4, 811A amplifiers and both promptly abandoned because it increased VHF squirreliness.
- The gotcha is that there is no way to neutralize an HF amplifier on the parasitic VHF-resonance in the anode circuit. The only game in town is to artificially reduce the VHF gain of the tube by decreasing the VHF-Q of the suppressor.

Larry -- Does the AL-572 have a neutralization circuit? Tnx
