Carl: What qualifies as a monster? On my largest power supply here, which is an early, untapped, Peter Dahl unit that runs 5000 volts at 2 amps, I use a 30 amp variac. Under a 1.5 amp load, with the

As a vague rule-of-thumb, the value of the plate blocking cap should be 4 to 5 times the value of the tune cap at resonance for the frequency in use. That would indicate 100 to 150 pf for 6M. I use a

Speaking of which, I have a couple of the very old ones where Eimac recommends nichrome wire as plate and grid leads to reduce the possibility of parasitic oscillations. Where they are, or when I'll

Carl & Roger: I'm really not arguing with you here. However, comparing a 6C21 to a 750T runs contrary to what I know about the tubes. An older, local ham gave me a NIB pair of 6C21s about 25 years ag

The filament voltage for the 6C21 in pulse service is 8.3 volts. For normal service it is 7.5 volts. 73, Barrie, W7ALW I can't find the thread or initial question leading to this but you are right. I

When using Duncan Amps power supply designer, how do you properly measure the secondary resistance on a center-tapped transformer? Do you measure the whole winding, or from center-tap to the outside

I've got two new spare 8877s for my HB 6M amp that I built in the early 1990s. I'm still using the original tube with full output. I did test both the spares a few weeks ago. Both put out approximate

Carl and all: Thanks for the responses. I did swap the tubes, as Carl suggested. The brightest glow stayed on the right. So, I suppose I have some sort of circuit imbalance. Since the visual imbalanc
