Sure - in the absence of QRM, it's a workable CW signal. You can easily set up a simulation with a signal generator and an RMS- reading AC voltmeter. 0dB S/N is the same as (signal power) = (RX noise

I'm presently repairing a Heath SB-1000. Are there any modifications that would be worthwhile while the cover is off... besides a step-start and a glitch resistor, that is? 73 from Ian G3SEK Editor,

Thanks, everybody, for all the suggestions about the SB-1000. I'm still in "repair" mode at present, but will think carefully about them all. Meanwhile... Bad... let me explain. The glitch resistor h

That's not true - and it can be dangerous! If the resistor is where you describe it, in a +3kV supply, a current surge from the HV+ rail will push the center-tap towards -3kV with respect to chassis.

The initial current pulse comes out of the smoothing capacitor, so the transformer inductance does nothing to help. This same discussion happened here some months ago, and I put together a little web

Yup, they do. The wattage rating only applies when they are bolted to a large piece of metal, and the rated maximum voltage between the resistor and the body is only about 1000V AC. (I have used them

The real limitation for this application is power dissipation in normal operation. For say a 30 ohm resistance, 5W size clearly won't handle even 0.5A. Dissipation is downrated drastically with ambie

Not my thumb, but Eimac's. Based on the 40A limit that Phil summarizes below, it would actually be 25 ohms per kV. However, many people tend to use less than this (in consideration of the voltage dr

At a guess, it's much too short to avoid the risk of arcing from turn to turn when the full HV appears across it. Long and thin is what's needed here. 73 from Ian G3SEK Editor, 'The VHF/UHF DX Book'

Make that "...from failure due to a current surge occurring for *any* reason." It's best to keep an open mind about the causes, but by all means protect against the effects. 73 from Ian G3SEK Editor,
