Yes, that's 2 1/2 times the value for a 8877 that works good up to 222. Will this tube go that high?

144 mhz tuned input for a GG YC-156 ??
Ok, how does one go about building a tuned input for a 144 mhz amp, using a YC-156 tube ? The input C on the YC-156 is huge,? 92.5 pf? ?( grid to cathode). This is for a cathode driven? ?YC-156 (

Re: HomeBrew Amp Chassis
Keep in mind that sometimes, paying somewhat more for the chassis can make up for a lower shipping cost, too. Compromise, compromise, compromise... Steve, K0XP

Re: HomeBrew Amp Chassis
The Amp Repair guy has a few videos on Utube constructing a few amps. He purchase his chassis ready made. Check Utube for the name of the supplier. And yes there are metal suppliers listed on the web.

Re: Gi46b on 2m - Thermal drift problem
It seems fine, I suppose, even above SRF, it's only a few nH.... and is still a DC block ;-) The Gi46b runs low power as a driver for the final triode so has a pretty easy life.

Re: Gi46b on 2m - Thermal drift problem
4x HT50 or 55 do well on 2m with 4CX1000/3CX1500A7 amps. GI7b and similar tubes drift when cooling is insufficient. 73 Peter -----Original-Nachricht----- Betreff: Re: [ham-amplifiers] Gi46b on 2m -

KW1000 amp renovation, filaments, bias and neutralization.
I recently acquired a British KW1000 linear which uses a pair of 572Bs and is somewhat similar to the SB200. The power transformer was missing but I have been able to fit a replacement from the junk

I'm not sure if this is in reference to my picture or not, but if so the camera may be playing tricks on you. The teflon I'm using is .4mm thick (in fact it's not even teflon in that mock up, it's a

Re: Gi46b on 2m - Thermal drift problem -Sorted
Sorted! Changed the blocking cap and replaced the muffin fan with a blower big enough for a GS35. Power 350W drifts down to 330W after about 30 seconds, but that could just be the driver power
