181. [AMPS] More on the SB220 (score: 1)

I've heard of both gas inclusions and surface imperfections that might be the same as Eimac's 'barnacles'. Whatever the cause, improvements such as pure, gas-free metals and better processing can cer

It's been years since I worked on an SB-220, so I didn't have the circuit handy, but have now downloaded it from Rich's web site (thanks!). R3 is not involved in the normal anode-cathode HV current p

As I understand it, gas-induced arcs wouldn't the tube to be biased on, because the arc doesn't need electrons in order to get going - it only needs HV and a source of material to ionize. The arc the

A normal silicon rectifier diode has no detectable effect on meter calibration at 500mV (I checked with a DMM) but it starts to conduct significantly at around 600mV. That's why it's nice to design t

A TL431 "adjustable zener" with a cheap PNP darlington transistor such as a TIP147 will give continuously adjustable bias voltage that is rockstable up to at least 2A (which a zener or a transistor+z

Another significant issue is that 30 or more years ago, in the period up to the time when the Eimac application note was written, VHF amps were notorious for their hit-and-miss output coupling arrang

It is also something that people want to use, simply because they enjoy using it. In *amateur* radio - done for the love of it - we don't have to use the "best" mode or the "most efficient". Simply e

Shunts are better when everything is working normally, because they produce the minimum voltage drop, -BUT- in the event of current surge (due to an arc or whatever) it's more difficult to protect sh

It seems that the input network is actually providing a reflection for harmonic energy, not a matched termination. So... just speculating... in a multi-band amplifier, would it make sense to wire the

Probably by not using it in situations of high RF stress (voltage gradient) or high temperature. I've managed to melt Delrin by putting it in a particularly stupid place in a 144MHz PA running only 2

Yes, it is clear that external heating could not cause the internal bubbling. But that tells you nothing about whether they will work well enough in a particular situation. As Dick has pointed out, t

Fair enough - anything involving high RF potentials (and probably high temperatures too) is a risky application that would need careful testing before committing to production. It's more difficult fo

Someone e-mailed to ask how to stabilize the screen voltage in the Collins 30S-1. The 30S-1 uses a 4CX1000 with a DC-grounded screen, and it derives its total anode-cathode voltage from a positive an

There are various methods for calculating the Pi and Pi-L network values, some more approximate than others. As has been pointed out already, approximate methods are actually OK for this application.

IMO a coaxial connection *is* necessary, for safety reasons. The "nightmare scenario" that you're trying to avoid is where the two chassis are at different potentials because they're interconnected o
