## what's used for 160m tank circuits is powdered iron toroids, type 2.
These are the red ones. Permeability of 10.
## I would like to know the config of W7RY's 8877 amp tank circuit. I'm
assuming it's a HB amp ? On paper, with a shorting switch used, there
should be no issue..when operating on any band. I suspect that on 10m,
coupling is taking place, or perhaps an internal switch resonance issue.
This is the 1st time I have heard of the 160m powdered iron core heating
up, when operating on 10m. I will see if I can find the original thread
from 8 years ago.
