[Amps] Designing the Cleanest Linear with RF Negative Feedback

[Bill L. Fuqua]

Just looked at the article. Seems to be what I suggested earlier.  Low mu triode in grounded grid. The advantage of  a 4CX tube with control grid connected to the cathode requires no bias voltage and is should have very little screen current, if any.  
If you look at the article you will see all the drive power goes to the output.

Hi Tom,

Here is some more info for you to look at. Qst July 1967 page 34 is an 
article by Orr on super cathode driven amps. He shows the difference in 
IM performance on the 4CX350 in this configuration which if I remember 
right is about 15 db better than grid driven.

Other good stuff in the article about feedback too.
