At one time castor oil was used in automobile racing engines rather than petroleum oil. I can still remember the sweetish exhaust smell of an engine running on castor oil. I think that's where Castro

Ask for refrigeration tubing. It's dead soft, easily bendable, and should be available at any plumbing supply. A 2ft piece may be another matter. You may have to buy a whole 25 or 50 ft coil. A plumb

I have tried MEK and it didn't seem to work too well. The Liquid Electrical Tape was lumpy. On another attempt I used good old octane and it worked perfectly. The liquid was thinned and smooth. I now

I have always used RG-8 coax, not foam, for HV wire. I use HN series coax connectors. They are a little pricey if you buy them new but I manage to find a sufficient supply by scrounging around in the

Without knowing more about it than just the tube used it is difficult to know about documentation. However, in Bill Orr's Handbooks there was a construction article on a 5CX1500 amp. It is in the 21s

The socket is no more special than that for the 4CX1500. It is basically the same socket, It just has an extra connector for the suppressor grid. David Kc2JD/4 _______________________________________

I can't tell you about the 5CX1500B but I have a 5CX1500A in a socket sitting on the desk right in front of me. Yes, there is a difference between the 4CX1500A and the 5cx1500A sockets. But, it is on

I don't believe anyone is making high wattage zeners any more. Any time I find one at a ham fest I grab it. Is there some specific voltage you need? I have some 50 watt zeners. David KC2JD/4 ________

The problem with the HT-33A is the tube. PL-172's have a propensity to leak. Since they are no longer being made, a good one is difficult to find and expensive when you do. A good PL-172 is probably

Manfred, Maybe my nomenclature of plate bypass capacitor is incorrect. It is capacitor connected to the DC feed end of the plate choke. I have never seen a capacitor of that large value used for that
