[Amps] 10 kWp from 8877

[John T. M. Lyles]

The 8877 plate current curves do get to 5 Amps, but the cathode I max 
isn't specified on the datasheet. plate current max is stated at 1 
Amp, however, this is not a pulsed rating. Oxide cathodes are able to 
make peak emission for short pulses, used in some BIG radar amps. I 
was told my an engineer who worked with NMR/MRI that 10 kW pulsed 
from an 8877 wasn't atypical. But to advertise that for PEP, 
well...........
