Re: GG Amplifiers Bias Cut Off


 

Hey Alek, How's 20 meters been down in your neck of the woods lately? Maybe we can get on and say hi again one of these days soon along with your "Jack Daniels" friend!
73 and happy new year, Bob W4JFA?

Yes, that's good Alan.

Whenever I get an amplifier in that is wired the "wrong" way, I always make the simple change.

73, Alek.

I have four Henry amplifiers (2-KD-Classic, 2KD-5, 3K-A, and 3K-Classic-8877), and all of them have the resistor always-in-circuit, with the relay acting as a bypass. Likewise, my Drake L-4B , with the "Soft-key/Soft-start/Bias board" installed, also has the relay configured to bypass the always-in-circuit resistor.

So, on some (many) amplifiers, the designers did get it right.
