Hello Jim, 4kv.  It's about 4.2 kv, no load. On another point, for the group, 'somewhere, sometime', in more than one place on the web, I've seen where people recommended using 2.0 as the 'K' factor,

I faced this problem when building a 4CX1000A amplifier. The GM3SEK calculator gives you a value, but the stray plate-to-ground capacitance is an important variable and it is hard to determine. I mea

Steve.. So... the minimum capacitance of the tune cap is a problem on 10 meters.... I would use about a 100 pF cap MAX for the tune cap (vacuum cap is absolutely not needed). Then L1 is 2.3 uH (most

Thank Jim, One of my big questions was if I could use GM3SEK's spreadsheet calculator.  I'm not too far off from what you came up with and that was because we used different numbers here and there. I

A K of 2 applies only when the tubes are biased for class C. Typically they are run in class B (K=1.8). I use such tubes as well, RS1002A or QB4/1100. 73 Peter, DJ7WW Hello Jim, 4kv.  It's about 4.2

Jim, Thanks a bunch for your input. I was close. I had used .65 for the current and a "K" factor of 2.0 as I'm 99% CW.  It's been DECADES since I was above 28.1 MHz.  I could have easily chosen 1.8.

Steve, I realize some guys may be able to get the physical build to match these calculations and have it be dead on.  But in my limited experience, there is still a lot of manual tweaking that may be

I'm not an amp builder, but my EE classes included load lines for tubes so that we could compute their dynamic output resistance, so this advice seems spot on to me. Our class of '64 was the last to

Yup! Or make the coil a bit longer than needed, then when done tweaking... Make a "completed" one once all the fine tuning is done. 73, Jim W7RY I'm not an amp builder, but my EE classes included loa

Jeff, and others, Not a problem.   I already have an idea to make the connections of the coil, snug, but still moveable.   I plan on making my 'best guess' and then have enough slack in the mounting
