Title: Nice AM tube? Post by: PA0NVD on September 24, 2018, 04:32:41 PM Nice size AM tube, Brown Bovery T2000-1. 8,5 KW output in GG

Title: Re: Nice AM tube? Post by: PA0NVD on October 04, 2018, 08:11:12 PM Sounds as a good idea, don't provoke me.... But I think that the pole pigs here in CR are all 19 kV AMfone - Dedicated to Amplitude Modulation on the Amateur Radio Bands
Whenever comes the time that I run into a power supply, I like to try the cathode/grid modulation with a simple power FET. A single 1200 V FET may modulate the tube running at 1500 W carrier |
