** I don't know how to go about calculating the ripple or how to size the capacitors for a quadrupler ps. My estimate of 8 caps per quadrupler assumed that some seriesing and paralleling will be nee
Sounds like the Joe Jennings article. Indeed. Do you think it feasable to connect two quadruplers in series? cheerz, Jim - Rich..., 805.386.3734, www.vcnet.com/measures.
Steve's 0-volt prediction sounds a tad fishy. Would it be possible to put two quadruplers in series if they were powered by the same source? - Rich..., 805.386.3734, www.vcnet.com/measures.
If you want to discuss the 922, phone me. The 922 does not have a hv-ps that is designed for carrier/locked key operation. A keyer sending 50wpm dits is a better way to go. When a tube shorts, the un
** Upon inspection of the voltage-quadrupler/rectifier-filter circuit diagram, it appears that the ripple currents in the 4-capacitors are different. If this be the case, it would seem that the capac
I have heard of 5kV for SSB only using g-g config. However, tuning up with pulses or dits is probably not a bad idea. Also, more anode-V yields more gain. This is both good and not good, so one shoul
José -- My guess is that the meter was damaged by something that also did other damage. Are there 3A glitch diodes across the meter movement? Does the AL-1500 have a VHF parasitic suppressor i

The transformer alone would blow fuses if it had a short. Operate it with nothing connected to the secondary and measure the primary current. If the primary current is under 1A, (or it doesn't blow
Although it has seldom been a problem on AMPS, there are contesting.com mailing lists that are moderated (censored) by wannabe controllers who seem to have covert agendas and/or a lust for dominion.
Regulated HV does nothing other than improve pep during berserko speech processing. Regulated anode supply V does not improve linearity. However, regulated screen V does. I built a regulated 6kV sup
