[Amps] GU43B amp for 2m ?

[Will Matney]

Trian,

Yea, it's a 2 meter amp. I don't like what he done on the tune and load 
capacitors. I think that amp will have problems arcing. There should 
have been a full sheet of Teflon plastic across each plate instead of 
those little spacers on the ends (my opinion). This tube is hard to 
mount due to the fact it has the coaxial ring connections all on the 
same plane. Easily made copper clamps cant be used here, and finger 
stock is about the only method to use like he's done. If one set down 
and studied this though, a different solution might be found.
