Another piece of ham lore is -- if you run the heater for a day, the getter will get hot and absorb the gas. That's worth a try, and won't set your backyard or basement on fire. 73 Jim N6OTQ

That's prolly the answer. I put my friends amp back together so I cannot test it now plus it obviously puts stress on everything so I'll mark it bad and test it at a later date. Your theory makes

The tube is likely gassy and will only conduct when HV is applied. It usually takes a few hundred volts for a gassy tube to conduct so the low voltage from a test meter will not reveal a gassy tube.

Rich Measures (SK) wrote about this, and suggested (for different tubes) a possible way to fix it by swinging a live tube around your head. I guess if you do it outdoors and the tube is already

Jim, Can you point us to a good filter material to use? Maybe a link? Jim – KR9U Sent: Friday, September 8, 2023 1:13 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [ham-amplifiers] Operating RTTY FSK

Hi all, I'll condense this, you'lll get the idea. A friend has an 811H with 3 year old 572B's. One shorted and causes the fuse to blow immediately. Tube replaced and all is well. Measuring with a DVOM

This is exactly why you install or retrofit a filter on the air intake. https://www.arraysolutions.com/amplifiers-rf?product_id=14890 On a side note, a shop vac on the bottom of the tube will get most

The muffin fan on the back is the optional fan. The optional fan adds to the air flow through the tubes and a lot of air movement around the transformer. Jim - KR9U From: [email protected]

Dear Jim, (et al), Nice to see a good suggestion about running RTTY through an amplifier, e.g., TubeMax. I run an Alpha 76A with a coupla 3CPX800A7's with an outboard supply, and the W7RY triode board

Thanks for your reply. My 86 has the blower and a fan on the rear panel. Is there another fan that can be installed? The blower does have ducting to the tubes. Ron - KK7GO Get Outlook for

There’s no problem running RTTY on this amp. If you keep the grid current under 40 ma and the plate current under 875ma, you will still make rated power and the tubes will last forever. If it

I had to do that as well. A little Dremel and a few seconds. Lou does a good job with those replacement meters. Bob W4JFA

Hi Bob, You asked that I let the group know how things went. Lou sent the meter, and a soft key module, and both are installed and working perfectly. And the new meter looks just like the original.

Hi, New to RTTY. Looking to see what I need to know regarding the use of the Alpha 86 and FSK on RTTY at recommended power settings if any. 73 Ron KK7GO

Not bad on the switch. Its worth the money For a tube like this. Input sound standard. Similar to mine but less spacing on caps. Also not band switched but just 14 taps of inductance from an air dux
