Rich suggested 7.5 KV. Personally I think that's a little to high since the
maximum rating is 7 KV if memory serves me. Of course if all you are going
to do is run SSB, 7.5 KV is probably OK. But if you are going to run AM or
RTTY or even high speed CW, I would feel uncomfortable running my plate
voltage that high.

the above comments reminded me of a fellow I ran into on 40 mtrs a few years
back he was running 5KV ON A PAIR OF 813s! i wondered, but forgot to asked
him what his idle current was, as the (2) 813 give only 250 w of plt. dissp.
anybody here had any experience running 813s at this voltage?? (seems just a
tad high to me!)
