I've noticed an interesting effect with the 3-500Z tubes in my SB-220. When I run a kilowatt SSB on the low voltage setting on low HF bands, there is very little glow. When I run the same power on th

Hello Cathy, The answer is increased "RESTING" plate current in high voltage position. Resting plate current does NOT produce any RF, so it becomes 100% heat and 0% RF. The plates dissipate extra pow

Thanks, all. It had not occurred to me that it is simply due to higher bias current at the higher plate voltage. 73, Cathy _______________________________________________ Amps mailing list Amps@conte

Hi Cathy, Jim, and all, I agree that a part of the higher dissipation is caused by higher idle current, multiplied by higher plate voltage. But I think that you are wrong in a few points here, Jim, a

I tuned for peak power at the higher voltage, advanced the load control a bit more, and operated there. I do not want to wear out the unobtainium CW/SSB switch by going back and forth every time I us

Put in the controlled bias circuit and they won't glow unless youre running RTTY or similar. And you can leave it in the SSB position all the time. Joe WB9SBD Sig The Original Rolling Ball Clock Idle

I do not want to wear out the unobtainium CW/SSB switch by going back and forth every time I use the amp. I want to pick one voltage setting and do 95% of my operation there. 73, Cathy N5WVR I do jus

Thing is, If you were to stick with just one voltage, and say the switch did go bad, what is wrong with just by-passing the switch all together and just connect the wires to each other as the switch

Switching between CW and SSB voltages doesn't stress the switch much. Turning the amp on results in a large surge through the on/off switch. This can be minimized by starting the amp in the CW positi

But I think that you are wrong in a few points here, Jim, although most is correct: Only if Cathy re-tuned the tank circuit for optimal efficiency at the higher voltage and the same power. If instead
