Unfortunately, it seems that any reference to the original W4EMT's material is gone, too? 8-( 73, Steve K0XP

W4ZT Amplifier Web Sites Gone
Old news to some, perhaps... I think he died some time ago; but W4ZT's amplifier web sites, mostly showing big Russian tubes such as the GS-35B but also with links to many European Russian tube sites,

Re: Artificial centre tap for GG 3CX1200
Thank you, Reid. I was only thinking about the RF part. I ignored the DC plate current part of the equation. Forum readers, please excuse my oversight. Meanwhile, I have found in my spares a NOS in

Re: Need Help with Amp Supply LK500ZC
That might be caused by a short from B- to ground (safety diode?). In that case anode current is measured via the grid current shunt resistor and shown as grid current as well. 73 Peter, DJ7WW

Re: Artificial centre tap for GG 3CX1200
Hi Dave, the need is for a dc return, nothing in the way of capacitors will work. Using AC on the filament a center tap for the dc return will null hum voltage. The concept was raised of using a small

It¡¯s hard to know what someone did there. ?It¡¯s a mess. ?If the B- has a safety diode somewhere and it¡¯s shorted the grid meter will respond in kind with the plate meter ( a la Ameritron) the

Re: Need Help with Amp Supply LK500ZC
Considering the condition of that modified amp, I wonder if perhaps the grid current circuitry is miswired, and has always indicated something, but the operator just didn't realize it wasn't reading

I use? 10 x 1N5408 diodes in series for aprx 7.2 vdc bias on my drake amps ( 2 x 3-500Z's)...... and they are 2650 vdc on RX.? Idle is then 100 ma.? ?(and just 40 ma on the lower CW / 1900 vdc

YOU NEVER WANT A FILAMENT TRANSFORMER RATED MORE THAN?NECESSARY!! ?here¡¯s why: Filament transformers are designed to deliver the rated voltage ONLY when the rated current of the tube is drawn of

Re: Artificial centre tap for GG 3CX1200
Ceramic Disk Capacitors are used as RF bypass capacitors in RF circuitry--that is to short RF to ground. And Capacitors can be also used to block DC and low frequency current form passing through

You should not be getting any grid current reading. Alek, VK6APK.
