I'm rebuilding an amp's PI-L tank from scratch. I have the values all
calculated per W5FDs program. However I'm lacking in sophistocated test
equipment...   I can calculate the value of the inductors, SWAG at the value
of the caps.

I do have an Autek RF-1 analyzer.  Would a useful approach be to provide the
desired plate load via a resistor, approximate the values of C1 and C2, then
adjust L1 and L2 for 50 ohms at the output measured by the RF-1?

Any other real world approaches (sans fancy instruments) ?

THX,  Bill  N2BC
