Re: Grid bias 3-500Z

Yes. At 2.5kV plate volts, you probably don't need bias. At 3kV in the TL-922, you definitely want bias but as VK6JX mentioned, forward biased string of 6A10 diodes is a lot cheaper than a 50W zener diode. You can place a 10uF to 20uF capacitor across the string for better dynamic regultion as well.

Hello

?

Now that both of my 3-500Zs have been de-gassed, I have a new question.

?

·???????? In the L7 (Drake) the bias is at 0 volts

·???????? In the Kenwood TL-522 it is -7.5 V as shown in the following diagram

?

We read a bit of everything

?

The objective is to put the L-7 into operation in SSB at medium power.
