Re: YC-156 amp
Yes understand. Well 4-1000As can be made to run very good, however I just want to try something else. However those tubes they glow very nice in the dark, both filament and plates. 73 SM2EKM

Re: YC-156 amp
Thanks Tony, OK 19 dB or so, sounds nice. Yes its a nice tube, time to retire the old 4-1000A bottles. As I said it will be a simple swap. I already have two 7.5 V fil transformers in the box, just

Re: YC-156 amp
I have several friends running the YC-156/179 GG, cathode driven with tuned input. With anode voltages of 5500 to 6500 they observe power gains upwards of 19 dB. As you reduce the plate voltage drive

No, they're not for feedback; these resistors are from base to ground and even from base to base, there are three, and are different types than those used in the attenuator for example, look modern;

Re: YC-156 amp
Jim, more years ago than I can remember I built a 4-1000A GG amp. It was ok, but hard to drive. At that time I had a HT-37. I came upon a 3-1000Z, which can be plugged right into that same socket.

Jim, Grid drive I suppose? In GG I would guess with 200W drive maybe 5-6 kW, or? Im planing to replace my 2x4-1000As with a YC-156, I think its a ideal tube. As soon as I can get hold of a good one at
