Re: Filament Voltage regulator
As I understand it, the last reason is correct. In the first and last article I wrote for QEX, the ARRL's copy-editor added 5 technical errors to my manuscript. R L Measures, AG6K, 805.386.3734

Re: Orr's... "super cathode driven"... what is it ?
The driving signal is applied between the cathode and the screen instead of between the cathode and the grid, and the control grid is connected to the cathode. Thus, the gain is c. the same as the

Re: 3-500Z socket.... max current ratings
current??. With only that tube it ### good question. I was told that the Eimac SK-410 will easily handle 26 A. Ditto with a SK-510 [4-1000 socket. Some versions of the 4-1000 ran 7.5 v @ 26 A] ###

Re: Filament Voltage regulator
a cheap and reliable methode is the magnetic regulator, I use choke regulated heater transformers. There is no need for fast regulation. 73 Peter ________________________________ From:

Orr's... "super cathode driven"... what is it ?
OK... I'll bite. What exactly is Orr's... "super cathode driven" circuit all about ?? Is this simply semi floating the grids on a 3-500Z.... or something else ? 25 years ago.... there was this circuit

Re: Filament Voltage regulator
A CV transformer is uneffected by RF. An active regulator will have to be properly shielded so RF doesn't modulate it. I saw it as a cool idea but the failure modes could be a problem. gfz pentalab
