Re: Dilemma
Hey Chuck. Have not had a QSO is a long time. Where are you hanging out these days on AM? W7WRX ________________________________ Sent: Tuesday, February 4, 2025 9:38 AM To: [email protected]

Re: Dilemma
Grid drive one 4-400 with bias and screen voltage. Then you can run Class C for plate modulation and bias it for AB1 or AB2 operation for SSB amplifier mode. A Johnson ranger or similar power

Re: Dilemma
Are you planning on using the modulator with this amplifier? If so a Single 4-400 will do 550 to 600 carrier and would be a good match for that 350-watt modulator for AM. It's a simple circuit.

I would sell all your tubes and buy 1? ?8877.? Just my opinion.

Re: Dilemma
Don, You have some mighty fine tubes to make up a bunch of nice amplifiers. My old mentor, Eric, WA4VVI(SK) would run 4 813’s at 4KV! I have an RCA SB-1K Radiomarine amp that uses 3-400Zs

Dilemma
Over the years I've collected parts to build an amplifier. Life got in the way during most those years but now I find myself with the time and ambition to build an amplifier for my boatanchors. As

Re: Smoker contamination removal
Removed the tube sub-chassis, and have it soaking in the Fan-monia bucket.... its really got a lot of buildup as the blower was throwing it all right in there. I got a new blower from ACOM recently,

Re: Drake L-7
I am still studying a way to cook my 3-500Z which have not been hot for at least 15 years. The idea is to cook at high current with a low anode voltage, without HF. The maximum rating of the

Re: Drake L-7
Yes, a “single diode path” would have made it clearer. Thanks for the clarification. What I understood is that these diodes are used to protect the galvanometers in the event of an arc in the

Hi Riki I own a 1990 HF-2500 which I got from the estate of a local ham many years ago. I had a question about it on this forum last week but through perseverance and much hair pulling, I managed to

Yes, a “single diode path” would have made it clearer. Here more then 0.7V are clamped, depends on the meter or meter shunt for grid current. Zener diode can be used as well or a germanium
