you say you are getting 400 w. with 520 ma Ip. I think that's 120 ma over the max Ip for a single 3-500 so you're possibly in trouble right there. you say you increase drive and get no more suds whic

You say you have some delay set to 300 ms to eliminate relay chatter. I don't think delay has anything to do with that. I've always thought relay chatter in an amp is due to RF getting into the relay

Okay, if I understand the situation correctly, when you place the amp in "operate" (as opposed to "standby") and key it into transmit, you see ~175 ma Ip with no drive. Normally with pair Chinese 3-5

The dissipation spec for a tube is what it is. cooling doesn't change it. Cooling matters for the pin seals. The mfr. spec. for 3-500 pins is a bit above 200 degrees C. (I can't recall the exact temp
