- Gentleman, What determines the capacitive value of the DC blocking capacitor used in a convential shunt fed PI, and can the same rules apply to a simple link coupled tank circuit? I thank you in adva

- To avoid affecting the amplifier's tuning and matching characteristics, the blocking capacitor should have a low impedance at all operating frequencies. It's reactance at the LOWEST operating frequen

- The value of the DC blocking cap is seeming less critical than is commonly thought. As I understand it, in most HF amplifiers, 200pF is enough. However, the I-handling ability become important on the

- thanks, Phil. Tom Rauch said that a friend inadvertently used a 100pF D. C. blocker in a homebrew amp, and, when the mistake was discovered and corrected, it worked no better with 1000pF than with 10

- I wonder if you may have gotten the numbers "backwards"... In my understanding of AC circuits, the requirement for the reactance of the blocking capacitor is to decrease with decreasing plate load im

- While we are talking about blocking caps. I'm collecting parts to build my 2m amplfier using a 4CX1500B. I have 2 sort op caps and would like to know if they are OK for use on 2m ? I have 2 of each.

- Back in the 'good ole days' of AM, I seem to remember that you never went above 1000pF, even at 160, because it bypassed the audio signal applied to the plate for modulation. I happen to have a 1200p

- I'm old, but not that old, Peter, but I think you speak of suseptance, or the ability to pass current. In an ideal capacitor with no heat losses it is the reciprocal of reactance. This has been calle
