Look for discoloration on the anode, it should be a nice flat black. Also no discoloration of the glass or those little filament support springs loose in the bottom...or little pieces of filaments. A

Heck I had a pair of 100TH's on 6M in the early 60's but no matter what I did with the bias or drive could I get high output and no splatter at the same time. At 3KV they glowed nice. Shortly after t

In a series fed PP circuit the Tune cap has to stand off the full DC voltage plus the Peak RF. On AM that is 4X the DC voltage for spacing. Altho cap values in PP are lower they are dual sections wit

You can use a stub in the coax to get an easy 20-25dB additional second harmonic reduction. A lot less hassle in a mono band or just put a stub in individual antenna leads. Carl KM1H Hi, 160mtrs cont

Lower the Q for wider bandwidth and less need of a retune, you should be able to use a 6 Q and followed by coax stubs for 2nd and 3rd harmonics. Carl KM1H Hi, 160mtrs contest past and we need more po

You can always use a piece of regular solid dielectric coax or even hardline off the anode and then followed by a LV variable. I used a piece of RG-17 and a small mil surplus cap with about 1500-2000

Maximum allowable screen current is not the correct way. You tune for a screen current PEAK and then use the load control to reach a maximum RF output while keeping the screen current within limits,

I don't care for that JI answer since grid driven tetrodes are almost always run in AB1 where there is no grid current and in AB2 there is only a flicker of current on peaks but a lot more IMD. Tunin

The 4-400 in GG have less gain than a 3-500 and a pair is usually good for 1000W in a full GG SB-220 thru 10M at 100W drive unless they are tired pulls. I converted an ISM amp with a pair of them to

If you use care in selecting the filament transformer it can be self current limiting. The one in the SB-220 is a good example. Many HB and commercial amps start off with a "robust" transformer capab

The 4-400 and GU-81M can both be run in GG. In a SB-220 with100W of drive you can expect 1000W due to a bit lower gain than the 3-500Z. Crank up the voltage at the same 100W and 1500W is likely attai
