Hello all,
I've been doing some reading in the VHF/UHF DX Book. I have ahead of me, a
homebrew amplifier and a power supply to build. In reading some of the
various power supply details in the book, they mention that the old screen
supplies used for Class C (modes AM, FM, and CW) won't work for Class-AB
service in SSB.
I'm still learning more about tubes and amplifiers here. I would like to
hear some discussion on why, when building a amplifier screen supply, that I
can't use the old screen supplies? I assume regulation is at the heart of
this statement.
Also, when I am reading some of the older literature, at what year in the
anthologies, should I assume that an amplifer was NOT designed for SSB
operation? All I know is that SSB was around when I was born. Anything
before that is beyond my recollection!
Thanks,
Jason
