Tuned Plate Tuned Grid Oscillators
On the "other" reflector a statement was made about TPTG oscillators and I posted a follow up question about the time of the Great Migration to this reflector so I never did get an answer. I'd like to

Re: 4 Tube 811 Amplifier.
That's the awful reality of adding cathode RF-NFB with thoriated tungsten tubes in parallel With multi-tube indirectly-heated cathodes, adding cathode RF-NFB is a piece of cake, but with

Re: Any idea's on a visual Grid / Cathode fuse indicating device ??
When a high-R exists in the cathode circuit, as soon as a little current begins to flow, the tube cuts off. My modified SB-220 and TL-922 do this, and if a tube ever happens to short, nothing is

Chinese AL-811
All, Hsu posted this at the other group. To be made in China, it looks a lot like an AL-811 if you ask me. BTW, did anyone ever ask Hsu to the group here?
