I have followed, and participated in, the recent Clipperton L Thread- Have
learned MUCH. But, I have a mixed answer that I need more help on.
Tom says the Clipperton can easily be made to oscillate in the HF region,
when set to 10M settings, and that I should 'Bite the bullet' and
neutralize it.
Rich says that several Amp manufacturers tried to neutralize GG amps, and
had no success.
I dont want to fry my 'new to me' Clipperton, which now has the 10M mods
completed. (earlier owner[s] had only done half the job).
You see my quandry? I need claification, or help. until I learn more, I
will plan to just put it on lower bands, and avoid the 10m settings. I dont
mind learning at the cost of popping and replacing a few resistors and
hand-would chokes, but I dont really want to buy new tubes, 4 at a time.
Any help really appreciated. Any good references on GG amps to recommend?
