Anyone have a favorite replacement T/R relay for an Alpha 76 ? I'm not interested in going with a vacuum relay. Something that is currently available from the Mouser or DigiKey catalog would be just

I recently sold a TL-922A, and per the buyers request, shipped the transformer separately. Unfortunately, the USPS lost the HV transformer, and I'm now looking at options for a replacement. Anyone ha

I have two Alpha 76's, both 3-tubers. One has the standard transformer, the other hypersil. Compared to the standard transformer 76, the HV on the hypersil 76 seems low - About 2150-2200 volts in sta

160mtrs contest past and we need more power... Plan is to add 3 dB by throwing in another tube (2.5kw anode dissipation Tetrode, grid driven). I could go for push-pull of just parallel the tube's. I

When I was a kid, a local department store had some kind of ultrasonic alarm system that drove me nuts. I used to also be able to hear the 15 kHz sound from TV sweep oscillators. One of the advantage

I have recently converted an Alpha 76 to a pair of RFConcepts (Alpha) 3CX800A7LG's . It is a little difficult to drive, taking every bit of 100 watts input for 1500 watts output on the high bands. I

I am converting a previously-modified SB-220 to a 6 meter-only amp. The original input pi-network is long gone. Most of the articles on conversion say stuff like "remove N turns from the original 10

Thanks everyone for the responses, both on the reflector and direct. Is there any particular reason the L-C-L T-match is better or worse than the more standard C-L-C pi network in this application ?

Finished the SB-220 6 meter conversion, but it seems to have major parasitic oscillations. A little background - I basically followed the 2008 QST article, except I have the original relay in it. I d

First, I want to thank everyone for their comments and suggestions, which were mostly sent privately. They were very helpful. The parasites/self-oscillation is fixed. That simply involved changing th

Excellent advice, Jim. I was nearly killed at age 15. Thank goodness the mic cord/HV ground return broke when I jerked backwards. The muscle contraction kept me from letting go of the D-104. I still

I was surprised to receive e-mail that the 2nd harmonic of my 1866.5 signal was QRMing a QSO on 3733. I know that 160 meters was added to the Alpha 76 as an afterthought when the FCC raised the 160 m

Manfred, Can you explain what this design is trying to achieve with separate transformers for the output (T1) and for supplying DC (T2) ? Why not the more traditional center-tapped transformer that a
