- I am not fmiliar with this particular model, but if it does not have a switched lowpass filter (in other words, if it doesn't have a bandswitch) then it is certainly generating harmonics to a degree

- The 1/2 distinction only applies to tubes. Class AB (for transistors or tubes) means that the conduction angle is more than 180 degrees (180 degrees is class B) and less than 360 degrees (class A). B

- I suggest that you temporarily short-circuit the choke and (with the amplifier off) look for resonances with a dipmeter, particularly near 17 meters. It's possible that the choke has a series self-re

- Seems like a lot of turns if you're not using the amp on 160. Temporarily short the choke and check it for resonances with a dip meter. make sure it doesn't have a self-resonance near 40 meters. Vic
