Hi Guys, Playing with my 30S-1 has gotten me thinking about a project. I've been wanting an amp for 50Mhz for a while and I have 2 4CX1500B's lating around as spares. One would make a nice amp on 6M

There are two separate issues here: RF grounding, and power supplies. The RF grounding issue is thoroughly discussed in the description of a 4CX1000 amp for 2m that was in the ARRL Handbooks for seve

Less power gain in cathode driven config. Wasn't it grounded-screen, grid-driven, not grounded-screen cathode-driven? A seriously bypassed cathode means that it's grid driven. Richard L. Measures, AG

Shawn I operated the 2m amp for several years on eme. There was a problem with the 3rd harmonic which appeared to be a result of cavity resonances in the output compartment. I cured it with a 100 ohm

The 30S-1 is cathode driven (I'm looking at the schematic now). G1 is mostly grounded to RF by a 220pF capacitor, but RF negative feedback is also applied at this point by a 5pF cap from the anode. G

The 30S-1 is cathode-driven because no signal applied between the grid and the cathode. The screen grid is grounded and the control grid is at the same signal potential as the cathode. Thus, the driv

It is cathode-driven because the RF input is connected to the cathode - and nothing else (still looking at the schematic here). Yes... The control grid and cathode are not connected in the 30S-1. G1

Not connected DC-wise, but for RF, there is virtually no signal potential between the grid and the cathode. Agreed, and the driving signal is applied to the cathode, so the 30S-1 is Class AB1 cathode

Because G1 receives a small fraction of the anode voltage as negative feedback, it moves in the same direction as the instantaneous RF cathode voltage, but I think that "virtually no" signal potentia
