- Last night I was using my 2KD-5, and it was working fine. After making several transmissions with no problem, it made a loud pop when keyed. Now the grid current indication goes off scale in the nega

- Hi Ed, sounds like a leakage to ground somewhere on the B+ side of the plate supply. Perhaps a HV feed through lost it's insulation or plate bypass or some other component in the B+ circuit has devel

- Agreed! But you can't just pull one tube at a time because the filaments are in series. You most likely have other parts destroyed by the tube short. 73 Jim W7RY _____________________________________

- Since the grids are grounded to the chassis most likely got a meter shunt resistor or 2. -- Original Message -- From: Jim W7RY To: Mitch Cox ; ED MCKIE ; amps@contesting.com Sent: Thursday, May 26, 2

- "The bias diode reads 13.5 K ohm in both directions when checked with one end of the 220 Ohm parallel resistor lifted," Ed, a normal dvm will check a single diode, but when you have diodes in series,

- I imagine this has already been mentioned, but with 3-500Z amps, a negative pinning grid current is often an indication of a grid-plate short, or a gassy tube. If there is a conduction path between t
