This discussion of single and multi-tube amps has been interesting. I learned a whole lot by finding www.somis.org (AG6K Richard Measures site including kits for suppressors on various amps) and www.w8ji.com Charles T. Rauch Jr. sites (what a station!). I put one of Rich's suppressor kits in my Dentron MLA-2500 "basket case" amp trying to improve it. I'm not proud of my 'construction' technique (read the whole instructions before starting) but I'm sure it helped. One of the things I wonder about is how you add a resistor to the filament lead since it seems it is going to have to be about 0.2/0.4 ohms or so at high current. Maybe a wire but that can add inductance so I was never clear on that. I suspect my Dentron could use that mod but I haven't done it yet.
