Not quite. Series circuits have impedance. Parallel circuits have
susceptance. Either can be converted to an equivalent of the other. In
general, things go a bit topsy-turvy. For instance, less R is series is
equivalent to more R in parallel. Thus, when no Ls/Rs suppressor is used
in series with the anode circuit (AL-1500), series R is low and the
parallel-equivalent R (Rp) is high. High VHF-Rp results in increased VHF
voltage amplification.
[The conversion process is described on page 27 in the March, 1989 issue
of QST.]

For those who can convert between (series) impedance and (parallel)
susceptance, what's to straighten out?. It's really no worse than
walking on the ceiling.

Not making good on the delivery of promised proof could be a problem,
Ian. ....... What are the values of Ls and Rs which prove that Messrs.
Rauch, Coffman, White, and Stewart are right? If what these gentlemen
said is true, it should be easy to quickly adjust values a bit and
decrease Rp to an even lower value than the AG6K vhf suppressor.
If you can deliver, Ian, AG6K will look the fool.
