Bob, Store it indoors, in a climate-controlled place. If you put it in the shed, the climate swings will affect the components, and you'll forget that you put it out there. The shed is for storing

Hi all, I thought this would be the best group to get an opinion from. I have an old tube tester in it's wooden cabinet. I would like to store it in the garage/shed. What do you all think about

I am aware of this voltage dissipation relationship, but Onder said the software is written for the 50-odd volts the amp uses. Perhaps he needs to develop his software so you can vary the drain volts

Thanks very much, Adrian ! I have one of those new-fangled SS amps - a 2.5kW PEP out unit from Onder at VK-AMPS. Very nice on CW and SSB, but it doesn’t have the ability to run decent power out on

Thanks gents - the below was awesome. If you have any other scientific papers/references on tubes, please post the links. Many thanks. John VK6JX

The FL-2100B primary taps can be easily set for 234v operation. Although not specifically indicated in their wiring diagrams, it can be done. I have my FL-2100 wired this way... works great. See the

A Chinese tube never does from filament issues no matter??what amp they are in and what the filament voltage is. ?It will die from a G-F short or some other issue long before it dies from any

Somewhere is all the messages my question spawned; Adria Fewster posted a link to a Richard Measures, AG6K (SK), article about modifications to a Kenwood TL-922

Dear Mike, Some years ago on the Amps @ Cont...Com forum, mention was made on methods of limiting thew inrush current to transmitting tubes and I believe to remember someone suggesting to run a

You know, this discussion of filament voltage and tube life just prompted me to why I originally joined the AMPS group and then consequently leading up to this group. The pieces finally fell into

Yes, in the good old days when transformers were cheap, People who ran the 2100 amps used an auto transformer, to cut the voltage to 230V. In the generations that followed, as those amplifiers were

In regard to seasonal line voltage changes, this is a very real issue ?in areas where houses are fed with unground utilities, like?developments.??Several houses?will be connected to pad mounted

Recently looking at a FL2100B that I wanted to switch over to run on 240 instead of 120. ?Going to the manual tor switching the line voltage you’ll notice that a range of input voltages are offered

I would not recommend? using a BIG? 240 vac variac to run the entire amplifier.? You will end up with poorer V regulation.? ?The peak current on the 240 line, every 8.3 msecs will make you gag.?

Jim, you comment: ## In the OP's case, if no room for a 5.0 vdc regulated supply, the 75 ohm @ 5-10 watt resistor in one leg of the 240 vac primary will work (or a 0-100 ohm, 25 watt rheostat).

Hey, that's great news Dave! That "VTX-X101" tube was Alpha-RF's "house brand" tube, and (as you discovered) they were supplied by Penta Labs. It is essentially a 3CX1500A7 copy. That date code would

I replaced the tube in my Alpha 9500 with an Eimac 8877. This tube produces 1500 Watts with less drive than the previous tube required to produce 1300 Watts. Turns out the original tube that was in
