Interesting site, however no mention is made of IMD performance with the
TB3/750 which is NOT a zero bias tube as claimed.
As a Class B GG 3-500Z replacement in say a SB-220 a bias of
approximately -80V is required with a resultant 180-200 ma idle current.
For a much cleaner signal AB2 a ~ -50V bias is required with a resultant Ip
of over 500 ma for the pair! At 2500V this is approaching the Pd of the
tubes resulting in excessive transformer and tube heating for the cooling
fan under even moderate SSB use. An electronic bias circuit would just about
be mandatory.
In addition a completely redesigned input circuit is needed along with
sufficient drive to overcome the bias.
If a clean signal is of importance then the TB3/750 or 5867 is not an
acceptable tube for SSB at typical 3-500Z plate voltages.
