Re: Ad Hominem behaviour in this forum thread
And King George III recenty posted that he will be monitoring AMPS closely and blocking ALL off topic posts! Gee, like so much bandwidth is used on that long obsolete forum.

Re: Test
开云体育I have a sick GU84B here, from an Emtron amplifier, which developed the exact same fault, some years ago. I've never tried to clear the fault. The tube is now a display piece.I did clear a hard grid to filament short in a 3-500Z by connecting it to a 12V car battery. Your tube is dead, so you might as well try the same thing. Run it up on heater and fan and give it a zap while it's nice and hot. You have nothing to lose. With your lost mail problem. Log into your mail account using a web browser and see if your ISP is putting the Ham Amplifiers posts into the junk folder. Recent moves by my ISP have seen many good emails go that way. My email client won't look at the junk folder on the server, so I have to log in via a browser and move them all to the inbox, so I can download and clear them from the server. Good luck, Alek.

开云体育Guys help me out here. I have trying to post this for several days with no success. Let me know if you receive it or repost it to the reflector if l can't. Doug
I have a GU-78B that has developed a grid short. I have determined the grid short initiates about 2 minutes after power on and ends after about 5 minutes. I have tried unsuccessfully to 'burn' the short by hooking up a 560?f capacitor fed with 300vdc. What other methods that can be tried to 'burn' this short? ? |
