321. Re: [Amps] Acceptable SWR for Tube Amps (score: 1)

Thank you for this info, Peter. I was presuming that Lukasz question pertained to the case of remote operation where a fixed preset was used without adjustment at different levels of VSWR (like you m

322. Re: [Amps] Paralleling plate xfmrs. (score: 1)
Author: Michael Tope <W4EF@dellroy.com>

I was curious about this so I did a real quick simulation in LTspice. When you parallel transformer secondaries with a small imbalance in secondary voltage, there is an inverse relationship between c

Hi Jim, Hmm, ignoring the impact of primary resistance, a 19.09 ohms secondary resistance could (in theory) lead to a current imbalance of 0.96 amps with an 18.4 volt difference in secondary voltage.

Yeah, based on the numerous examples you cite, Jim, and the LTspice simulations, I am convinced that paralleling can work, but that there will always be at least some current imbalance. Whether or no

325. [Amps] Alpha 87A Auto Band-Switching (score: 1)
Author: Michael Tope <W4EF@dellroy.com>
Date: Mon, 2 Mar 2026 03:30:53 -0800
One of my Alpha 87A has a problem with the frequency counter that is used by the amplifier to automatically switch bands based on the frequency of the input signal. Normally this is a desirable featu

I discovered that if you turn the potentiometer R20 in the frequency counter portion of the Input T/R PWB (Assy ABX-X182) fully clockwise,  it disables the frequency counter and auto band-switching t
