I am well underway collecting parts for an HF amp using an Eimac YC179 
tube.
Even though I am not expecting to power it with a HV-supply that are 
able to bring out the full potential of the tube, I would like to be 
sure I am using components adequately dimensioned for it.
I have a complete and very clean T-368 transmitter that have capacitors, 
inductors and switches that seems excellent candidates for being 
carefully relocated to the YC179 project. The T-368 components physical 
size and values seems in my opinion like being suitable for this 
project. I may be dead wrong.

You can find some details of the T-368 transmitter at this link:

What do you guys think ?
